The second grade students started their poetry unit this past week and to start off the unit we decided to take a look at things through the eyes of a poet. The students wore poetry masks to help their creativity flow as a poet. We discussed how the ceiling looked with regular eyes and we came up with; white with lines and black spots and stuff hanging from it, then we put on our poet eyes and many students saw the ceiling in a new way.
"It looks like a Cookies and Cream Hershey bar."- Caitlyn C.
"The ceiling is a big bowl of cookies and cream ice cream."- Omar
We also wrote shape poems. A shape poem is a poem written in the shape of an object.
Most impressive!
