Write four poems for extra credit points.  Below are four poetry prompts that will inspire you to write your poems.  Each poem you write is worth 4 points each for 12 extra credit points.  In this learning unit, you will find some poems of mine based on the theme of the border and my history involving Covid-19.  Give Voice to the Border Crosser (Poetry Prompt 1)Write a short poem and create a testimonio by telling a story about the Latino/x border crosser, giving voice to this history: their stories as subjects challenging colonial oppression.
