Antony is Invader
Today I had a bunch of 14 year olds write acrostic poetry in English class. They wrote their names vertically and then started each line of the poem with a letter in the name. They were supposed to be describing themselves. Below you can see some of my favorite poems- some with poor grammar or Japanese words... some not autobiographical... but still creative!
