Today students wrote color poems. We read excerpts from
Hailstones and Halibut Bones by Mary O'Neil to get us thinking about colors and our senses. Our poems were written following the scaffold of our mentor text
February by Charlotte Otten. Check out your student's SeeSaw account for a video of them reciting their poem!
February by Charlotte Otten
February turns everything to gray;
gray lakes, gray fog, gray sun.
Gray squirrels lose their bearings
hunting for acorns buried
beneath thick gray snow.
