Recycling into Poetry

Teens turned old magazines into poetry.

 They also created 'repurposed book poems' by taking old books, picking a page with words they liked and circling those words while crossing out others. The result? A repurposed book poem:

Eliminate difficulties.

Beautiful considered.

Figure identified.

Toughest pleased.

Arrived.

Gift.

The Games..Live...& More

Check out pictures from programs in April.
Teens recycled a variety of materials to create something useful:

  

 Teens made bows & arrows, challenged each other in the Conucopia, Fear Factor & Trivia Games, made their own delicacies at 'Peeta's Bakery', including yummy goat cheese & apple tarts & more as they survived the first library Hunger Games.
