Do you switch stations weekly? or a longer roation? I have 22 students and to do 2 to a station it would seem that it would need to be longer to get everyone through each station. I would have never thought to give specific tasks at big book, library, and poetry! Wahooooo! I am so excited about finally giving meaning to my stations! I believe its going to give me time for my small groups…which has been lacking because I have had such trouble keeping them on task without a good system. I also bought your I can station cards which are a revelation to me as well. I printed your station cards yesterday(I love how you have smaller groups…and flip the stations I never would have thought about doing that).
I am a first year teacher…trying to figure out literacy stations.
Snowball by Shel Silverstein (from his book of poetry Falling Up).Here are a few newer poems for this time of year. Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening by Robert Frost.You can read a few poems that I love by clicking: (Some affiliate links have been added to this blog post.) I remember some of these famous winter poems from my childhood memories. You may be a fan of the classic poems of Robert Frost and Emily Dickinson. Our morning routines offer a perfect time to explore the season of winter through poetry.Ĭheck out this collection of winter poems, complete with daily lesson plans. We placed the poem in a pocket chart or on a bulletin board so so that all students could see the print. Instead, each week, students learn a new poem. We don’t limit poetry to just poetry month in April. When students are motivated, they want to explore more! This is why (speaking from experience) you’ll have students keeping you on track and making sure you don’t skip poetry once you begin teaching these engaging lessons! Research has shown that poetry is a natural way to teach phonics skills, build reading fluency, and engage students in oral language.
Teaching poetry in the classroom is one of my favorite things… and it quickly becomes a favorite for students.
