1. Practice
Go through and select a picture from each slide. Copy it to the blank slide below to make your collage, then hyperlink each image in the collage to its corresponding poem slide.
On EVERY poem slide, make sure to create a hyperlink BACK to the collage!
I like to click ‘insert’ and ‘shapes’ on the menu bar and put a little circle in the bottom corner as my link back to the collage. Good luck. (:

3. From the ocean palace on the cool breeze
I am from the shining metal of the great Empire State Building
From the ocean palace on the cool breeze
The bright and shining lights in the mist of the bayou

4. I AM FROM Cold ice cream dripping on my tongue
The irritating sound of people saying my name wrong
The glistening water as the sun sets on the horizon in Charleston

5. I am from the smell of Florida sea air
From rowdy foot
ball fans
And chasing wailing firetrucks down Dreden Avenue

6. I am from poem
I am from the purple, white-topped mountains on my way to Virginia. I am from the rush of kicking a soccer ball and having it glide off your foot. I am from soft, chewy pancakes smothered in syrup!

7. From the wind blowing through my ears, making me almost fall asleep.
I am from the ocean crashing on my feet,
From the wind blowing through my ears, making me almost fall asleep.
I am from the green tint cast over everything by a storm,
And the gritty, white sand filling the island beach

8. I am from hard beats and cool music, Flowing through my ears, Loud, like my head is on the speaker!

9. from the graceful sounds of a Disney song,
I am from the hurtful, painful explosion of people crying,
from the graceful sounds of a Disney song,
I am from the tap-tap-tap of a pencil on a desk, thinking what to write next.

10. I am from football, the pads, the leather ball, the heavy gear, From the terrible sight of UGA beating Tech. I am from the pricks and pinches I get from the Legos I try to put together, And the soft silk of my baby blanket.

11. I am from darkened rooms and haunted houses,
From the bright, glowing trees surrounding the grass-filled forests.
I am from the slight fog over the calm water,
And from Leaves falling like snow in the woods.
