Poetry in NaturePosted by Faith Barbuto
Our kindergarten authors have become budding poets this month while reading and writing all kinds of poems to celebrate National Poetry Month. After drawing inspiration from Shel Silverstein, Dr Seuss and others we created funny poems and silly poems about food, pets and siblings! With our fifth grade buddies, we studied personification in poetry. Our next poems described the many roles we play throughout our school day. I am a pencil- when I am writing, a ball- when at P.E., a fork- at lunch, a map- during Geography. On another visit from fifth grade, they shared their “I am” poems and we delved deeper into how poetry can express how we feel about ourselves. We wrote acrostic poems about spring and used sight word lists to create found poetry. Our best muse was the great outdoors, where the sights and sounds of nature wrote the poetry for us!
