=Welcome to the Grade Six Virtual Poetry Café.= =Where language meets music.=

The classroom poets of 6G and 6H have fused original poetry with music and sound tracks selected from GarageBand. Drawing on their understanding of key elements of music such as tempo, pitch, dynamics and texture, they used sound to complement, emphasize and enhance the mood and tone of their poems.
