Poetry is in the Air!




With all of the holiday cheer in the air, the month of December is always a fun time to start our poetry unit.  The kids are always ready with poem topics, from their christmas wish list, santa's elves or those very missed summer days.  Over the next few weeks, I will be posting student poems.  Last week we learned about Acrostic poems.  If you can't remember what an acrostic poem is, check out the samples below and see if you can figure out what is special about them!  Also, be sure to check out some of our favorite poet's websites listed under "reading sites" on the side bar.
