  3. WHY? HOW? 1. DEMO: SHOE POEM

  4. My Black Converse by Ms. Blaine Q: I’ve missed you shoes, where have you been? A: In your backyard, in your dog’s mouth, and trapped under your bed Q: Where should we go tonight? A: Let’s go dancing! But I haven’t been worn in so long, so I might be a little rusty on the dance floor. Q: That’s OK! I’m just so glad to have found you again A: Me too, but can you wash me soon? This is an example of a question-answer poem. Have a conversation with your shoes!

  5. First High Heels by Claire My first pair of high heel shoes were bought at Cook&Love Shoes in Nashville, TN. I was 11 years old. All of my friends had heels and I desperately wanted some. But I had to wait a while because I was so small for my age, and at that time there weren’t any heels that would fit my tiny feet! Finally my mom took me to a specialty shoe store that sells special sizes. I found a pair of black heels with straps and fell in love. I remember tapping on the gymnasium floor because it would make the perfect sound. This is an example of a shoe memory. It can be written as a description, short story, or poem

  6. The Half-Pipe by J.S. Right Shoe: Wow, man that was a sick trick! Ty is really learning to shred! I almost lost footing on that Fakie Frontside. Left Shoe: No kidding dude! These four hour practice sessions are wearing me down. Oh no, I think we’re going back DOWWNNNN!!! dr This is an example of a shoe conversation. Have your shoes talk to each other!
