with Aidan Cobb. This workshop empowers students to explore the connections between poetry, visual art, and self-expression in a fun, hands-on, and interactive way. Designed for third through sixth graders, it introduces poetry through engaging activities that inspire creativity. Children will participate in student-led discussions on poems, exploring figurative language and poetic devices. They will also make connections between poetry and visual art while creating their own poetry and artwork. As a final collaborative project, each child will contribute a poetic line—whether a metaphor, simile, or phrase—on a leaf-shaped cutout. These leaves will be added to a collective Poetry Tree, forming a shared piece of artistic expression.

Lock Down DRILL - Groton Jr.-Sr. High School
4/3/2025
Students at the Elementary School and Jr/Sr High School participated in a taste test during lunch on Monday and Tuesday. We explored Indian Cuisine tasting Chickpea Masala with Naan Bread for dipping. We love feedback, so after the students tasted it they received a sticker. They could vote if they loved it, liked it or not sure. We had great responses and participation in both schools.
