This week we have been learning about a variety of poetry that includes couplets, acrostic and concrete poems.  All of the classes did a great job of creating their own class poems.
Kindergarten worked on couplets. They did a pretty good job of coming up with a rhyming sentence, but sometimes coming up with 2 lines that rhymed was a little difficult.

 

I used an online aid to help 1st grade with their acrostic poems.  It can be found at the following link.

I also used an online aid for 2nd grade and their concrete poems.  Here's the link for it.

April is National Poetry Month, so be on the lookout for more poetry in the coming weeks!
