Final Portfolio
Before I came into his class I wasn’t sure what we were going to do. When I first walked into Mr. Block’s class I wasn’t a good writer and I didn’t like history class but Mr. Block made his projects different and creative. Every project was unique in its on way and that’s what I liked about it. We had the freedom to write our thoughts in our papers.
“I am me and that’s who I want to be
I am fifteen cool,
fun and free
I see and hear just
like you
But very different I am to you”
About a month ago Mr. Block told us to make poetry wiki of all different poems we are going to write in class during our poetry unit. One of poems I was most proud of was my riff poem.
“The feeling you get when you realized you can run all those
miles
Every step we take were getting closer
Is that want we want?”
