Poetry Friday: A Cloudy Day
Having second graders write poems about clouds was part of the collaboration unit I just finished integrating science and literacy. These are a few treasures. Terran’s is significant because he hates to write. I love his repetition.
Cumulonimbus
Cumulonimbus
Rain cloud
Thunderhead
Lightening will make a
Big boom!
It is really dark.
–Makenna, 2nd grade
Cumulus, cumulus
You are big
Cumulus, cumulus
Whit cumulus
Puffy on top
Cumulus, cumulus
You have a flat bottom
–Terran, 2nd grade
Stratus
Stratus are soft
They are like a blanket
They are
Cool, tight, best
They are gray
–Oscar, 2nd grade
Unseeable
Calm
Wispy
Like
A
Wave
A little
Rain drizzle
Seems restless
Like
It’s
Always
There.
–Tailor, 2nd grade
Stratus
Soft like a blanket
So wispy
So gray
Low in the sky
See in the morning
Wiggly line
–Adam, 2nd grade
Counting down until I mail my national board box with my 4 portfolio entries.
