We started our Poetry Unit this week and we have really enjoyed listening to poems and looking at the world through they eyes of a poet. This is the saying we have glued in the front of our Poetry Notebooks. “Poets see the world in different, fresh, and unusual ways. They see the world in ways never imangined. They look at the world closely and carefully. They look with their hearts and their minds.” I can’t wait to see what our poets write after the vacation. Here is a poem we wrote together:
SPRING DAY
Cool breeze
on my skin
Warm grass
under my toes
Sun shining
in my eyes
Birds
singing everywhere
Birds
flying in the great blue sky
Kids
playing and running
all around
