Literacy class is always fascinating to learn because there are lots of different interesting things. This round we’re learning about identity and one of the projects that we’ve done is a poem. In this project, we’re creating our own poem by using the “Where I’m From” poem structure. Then, we created a video or audio about the poem and post it in the Flipgrid. Below, is the video that I’ve made and the poem that I’ve written.
I am from pillow from blanket and wall lamp. I am from the uncrowded home but warmth and sweet.
I am from the dry patch.
The red gooseberry tree whose long gone limbs shade the place.
I’m from curly hair dad but straight hair mom, from Panha and Chetra, my little brothers. I’m from night owl and time-poor family but from merrymaking.
I’m from the stop play with and the chatter when teachers away but rules stickler.
I’m from discrete eating family.
I’m from Siem Reap but Kandal mom and Battambang dad and from ideal eggs.
From restless dad, discharge for the family. All of the memories that I have with my family within my heart, will remain there for the rest of my life.
