Action Poems

We began the year with a review of the parts of speech. As a way of assessing their knowledge, we wrote action poems that involved the use of nouns, verbs and adjectives. This was an in-class assignment which was first modeled by Ms. Rubin. The students had an opportunity to brainstorm with each other to get ideas for each section of the poem and then they wrote. The following posts are a result of this lesson.
