Musings of a Mentor

Student Work

Posted in Ross Griffin Resource Center

I am posting this Poem by one of my students because it shows how she is attempting to use many of the things she is learning. She is working on the Haiku form of poetry, she is working on using seasons to help convey 'subtext', she is working on poem cycles, she is working on metaphors, she is working on building up her vocabulary and spelling skills and most importantly she she is trying to find her voice. She is sixteen and has struggled most of her life with learning differently.

Love's seasons

by Sue


love, like a spring night

calming wind blowing through trees

promised potential


love, a summer night

sultry, enchanting senses

your fire at night


love, an autumn night

leaves colorful, air blows cool

secrets now unfold


love, a winter night

snow falls beautifully bright

wrapped together

What Type of Homeschooler Are You?

Galileo - If it is worth learning, it has been printed
in Latin. You want your children to have a
classical education. You teach the Trivium of
grammar, logic, and rhetoric, and the Quadrivium
of arithmetic, geometry, music, and astronomy.
Ancient history is fascinating to you, and you
own several Greenleaf Guides to prove it.
