As part of the Poems for Obama Project, the WITS 4th grade classes at Burbank Elementary sent poems and letters to President Obama. Yesterday the students received a signed note and photo in return [see below] from President Obama. Here is an example of one of their poems:
To Honor the States
We all have rights.
We all have kindness in us.
So we need to share our dignity
and have a considerate mind.
We should never treat people wrong.
We know we need our education
to have a job and teach our own
children what we learned.
That is the only way to get by in life.
By John, 4th grade
