The Junior English classes at Prairie High School, taught by Sarah Remacle, have been studying the events of September 11, 2001. After reading a novel, reading poetry, and watching documented footage, students were asked to complete “Headline Poetry,” in which they were to respond personally to 9/11 using words out of headlines from magazines and newspapers. The outcome of the project was incredible, and we would like to share a couple of examples with you. The creativity and thought that was put into the poems are great. Enjoy!
A fall morning of sunshine in
America turns into the worst news
a researcher can put across the
television. A blast hits US
A revolution ruined.
