Spring Is In the Air

I love this spring weather. It's perfect for taking a walk with the baby in the stroller and getting some fresh air! It's also the perfect time to release my new poetry unit...after all, April IS poetry month.


Your kids will love learning about the elements of poetry as they use the elements to create their own poems. This Poetry pack includes everything you need to introduce poetry elements (such as alliteration) as well as teach students how to write specific poems (such as Haiku).

At the end of the unit you can have students create their own poetry books to display on the bulletin board (ALSO INCLUDED).

The element charts give a clear explanation and example of what the element is...and the poetry charts clearly explain how to write each type of poem along with a child friendly example!
Poetry Charts include directions & an example


Element Charts include a description, an example, and a question or task
