Early in May, we talked about poetry and learned this particular poetry format. Our first group creation was on ice cream.
ice cream
tasty, freezing
licking, dripping, crunching
rainbow, vanilla
ice cream cone
Make you hungry? Later each student carefully crafted a Mother’s Day poem. Their rough draft, corrected copy, and then the final were all wonderfully original. Some of their words reminded me of things my mother did during my childhood- how vividly I remember when my mother dressed up to go out… how well I remember her sitting on the side of my bed before I went to sleep… I know all of the First Grade moms must have enjoyed a special Mother’s Day!
That is cool!!!
