Poetry Out Loud Peformances...

Amanda Fernandez recited " Unknown Girl in the Maternity Ward". Her physical presense was strong and her voice and articulation were clear. Her dramatiaztion was perfect because she had great body language and nice facial expressions. I would say it was pretty difficult because of the length but the language was fairly easy. You could tell she understood the poem from the way she told the story.

I could understand the poem because of how she acted when reciting. At the end she says "hand you off..." i can tell that she had to give up her child. The poem describes the happiness that the mother feels with her child and the situation shes in because the father left.
