For our first week of classes, no poem was brought in for students to read. Instead, we discussed the Hands on Stanzas program, and what students knew -- if anything -- about writing poetry. Students were then asked to write a poem about the clothes they were wearing that day.

My Jeans!
Alexsandria B.
My favorite jeans are so cute
With a cool variety of blue
Nice and flare
When I first saw it
I stared...
And said those are mine!
Fits with everything and...
Looks mighty fine!
I Hate My Uniform
Mayra H.
School uniform
I hate it
Yes! I do.
School uniform
keeps me locked,
I can't express myself,
and people can't see the true me.
A white collar shirt & blue jeans,
can it get any duller
than it's already been,
gray or white or maybe navy blue
is the only color you can wear
underneath.
Don't understand why we have
to wear it,
if it's boring and dull.
I want to be free
to express myself as I can be.
Everyone is different in one way or
the other,
but when we get to school,
we are dressed like one another.
So I'm writing this poem
to say one thing.
I hate my uniform
because it's just not me.

My shirt is very cool
I have to wear it in school.
My socks are very white
they look like they're light.
My shoes are very small
but I use them to kick a ball.
What I Wear to School
Airam V.
What I wear to school is very dull.
My shirt is white with no design
but it is still very dull.
What I wear to school is very dull.
My pants are somewhat fuzzy and
pockets don't have much space,
but it is still very dull.
What I wear to school is very dull.
The shoes I wear are just simply black
with no design.
I wish my shoelaces were at least white.
What I wear to school is very dull
but what I like is my hair
holder on the right.
So now I figured it out.
What I wear to school is not
that dull.

My thread bracelet that my little
sister made.
My purple gym shirt with big white
letters saying McPHERSON SCHOOL.
My white hoop earring that matches
my shirt.
My first communion and baptism necklace.
My white K-Swiss shoes.
My Mickey Mouse socks.
My purple see-through glittery clip.

Danielle B.
My gym shirt has the
words McPherson School.
I feel good when I wear
my jeans. I feel good
because they keep me warm.
My watch is pink
and it tells me what
time it is. My ring
is gold and it has
three hearts in
the middle.
My yellow
band is yellow
and it says Live Strong.

My shoes are comfortable and new
I got them a few months ago
My jeans are clean
Everyone has seen
My shirt is white
It's in everyone's sight
My hair is gray
I used gray hair spray
Ms. Touras, 6th Grade

Agnes F.
Sometimes I hate the uniform.
You have to wear the same color
almost every day to school.
But sometimes I don't mind
the uniform because of my jeans
and my skating shoes. I like to
wear bracelets, and hair-bands.
I have a hair-band on with a frog
that my friend gave me.

Aidan K.
Today I am wearing
jeans and a white
polo shirt. My jeans
are too small and too
big. My shoes are fine
but the laces are really
long. My watchband is
kind of broken but the
timepiece still works.
The right nose piece
from my glasses is missing
but I am still in uniform.
Clothes
Ledio S.
I have my new shoes on today
They are two sizes too big
I bought them like that because
My mom says I grow like a tree
Why do I have to wear a uniform
It's the same thing every day
White shirt, blue jeans
It gets pretty boring this way
But the weekend finally comes
We are free for two more days
