Free Verse : Free Voice is a project about writing poetry to change the world. We, the 6th grade, joined groups of three or four students based off of our topics. The problems we were most passionated about were animal cruelty, racial/governmental profiling, and gun violence. Each group researched their issue and free verse poetry before writing their own poems. We shared our poems with school community groups, classes, administrators, staff, teachers, parents. This website is our poetry collection. Anyone can change the world if they are passionate enough. We hope these poems will inspire and change views on serious topics. -The Rocky Hill School 6th Grade (2017-2018)
