Whitehurst First Grade Poetry Recital
First grade students on the lower school Whitehurst Campus presented the annual poetry recital on Thursday, May 15, at the River Campus band shell. The students chose their own poems, with the help of their parents. They practiced the poems at school with teachers Jill Bobbitt and Beth Fidrych and learned two lines a night as homework. Poems recited included “I Am Running in a Circle”, “A Frog, A Stick”, “Louder than a Clap of Thunder”, “The Swing”, and “The Land of Nod”. Overall, the most popular selections were by authors Jack Prelutsky and Shel Silverstein.
