In the past week I collected two startling and fun pages out of our 1st Grade students’ poetry journals.
First, a poem by a boy who’s very much into writing poems that rhyme.
Second, a journal response by a girl who read a haiku translated from the Japanese.
The terrific thing about my job is that I am continually surprised and delighted by how smart all children are.
I love both of these, especially the second one!
Love the chocolate and crab poem…what an unlikely pairing!
Thanks for sharing 🙂
