Poetry
Doors to Poetry I have the five doors to poetry center. See Georgia Heard's book Awakening the Heart. Poetry Free Write They compose poems Poetry Copying They copy down a favorite poem, or even favorite phrases in a poem and illustrate. We recently did "Sunflakes" by Frank Asch and the kids chose the words or phrases that made a good mental picture. They copied them down and illustrated it. I hope some of these ideas are useful to you. Here are some good titles: Animalia is great for alliteration Hailstones and Halibut Bones is wonderful. Pair it up with My Many Colored Days by Dr. Seuss and Color Dance by Ann Jonas, then the kids can write their own color poems.
