Welcome Grade 8's
We are excited to include you in our Grade 8 Day Orientation Activity.
Before you leave today, you will be a published author and will be able to show your friends, family, teachers and classmates your original writing, published on the World Wide Web.
In order to participate you need only to write an original haiku poem. A Stamford Student will then arrange for you to type it and publish it here on this website!
Be sure to include your full name, home school and language art teacher's name. We'll send your teacher the link.
In case you are unfamiliar with haiku, it is traditionally a Japanese form. Every haiku is 3 lines. The first line is 5 syllables, the next is 7 and the last is 5 again. Here are some examples:
Haiku softly sings
and a word picture is formed.
A feast for the mind.
-Alex Knight, elementary school unknown
Battlefield students
write crazy haiku poems
making us all laugh.
