Poems by my 2nd grader

Poems by my 2nd grader

who brought home his Poetry Book, what with tomorrow being the last day of school.

Now, I’m not a poetry person myself, but he really enjoyed this unit, what with his teacher emphasizing descriptive language, and the layout of the words on the page.  Anyway, here are some selections (spelling corrected):

The Sky

The sky

is

black

dark

silent

like a

mouse

sky is

filled

with

sparkling

stars.

 

Leaves

Leaves

whirl

side to

side

as if

Wild Tigers

roaming

in

the

tree.

 

Math

when you

are regrouping

it feels like

column is

a house and

when you

regroup, it is as

if you have too

many flowers and

you want

to give some

to your neighbors.
