Your task is create your own version of two "Mr. Smeds and Mr. Spats"
and "Arrows", both by Shel Silverstein. Go to: http://www.lessonplanspage.com/printables/PLAPoetry-ShelSilversteinFillBlanks14.htm
Work with your helper to write
your poems.
You will publish your favorite poem using Kid Pix. Enter your favorite poem and create
an illustration. Here is an example of a class project using Kid
Pix. It should give you some ideas for your poem.
Poetry Quest by Mrs. Kay’s First Grade Class
http://esperanza.dvusd.org/kp_poetry.htm
Students could create a slide show similar to Poetry Quest using their
own
original poetry.
We will view the Kid Pix presentation when everyone is
finished. Parent volunteers are necessary for this activity. One adult for each three to four students is ideal. Make sure parents know how to use Kid Pix.
Before starting this activity, read the poems to students and pass out the fill in the blank form and copies of the poems.
