Over 50 young
writers gave up their
morning off on Friday, April
14 to attend a writing
workshop at Heppner
Elementary. Sonnets in
Spring was attended by
students in grades three
through six, coming from
A.C. Houghton, Sam
Boardman, lone and
Heppner Elementary.
For the past few
years, a seasonal writing
workshop has been held at
HES. It started with Authors
in Autumn, progressed to
Writers in Winter, and this
year the event was titled
Sonnets in Spring.
A popular twist this
year was that the teachers of
the various classes were
students from Heppner High
School. All of the planning
and preparation was done by
HES Language Arts teacher
Jannie Allen, and her student
teacher, Stefanie Spivey.
Twenty-three HHS students
then took over the leadership
roles, teaching classes
around the themes of jelly
beans, baseball, hamburgers,
Earth Day and kites.
The classes touched
on many varieties and styles
of writing, from poetry to
grammar study, to
persuasive and essays. Each
student attended four of the
five classes, and enjoyed a
snack in the middle of the
morning. Carri Grieb, a
dedicated Parent-Teacher
Club volunteer, organized
the delicious snack of fruit,
cookies and juice.
Each writer received
a coupon for a milkshake at
M cDonalds and the
opportunity to win a door
prize at the end of the
