A Few More Poems

Skiing 

By Teagan

First you get your skis on

Next you get on the chairlift

at the top get off

Then you go down the mountain

Doing rails and tricks and jumps and glades

Blue

By Logan

Looks like a whale

Feels like a chair

Sways like raindrops

Blue

Rainbow

By Zoey C

I taste a red strawberry

I taste an orange

I taste a yellow banana

I see a green leaf

I see a blue blueberry

I taste a purple plum

I see a pink pig

Sleep

It's nice like hibernation

Time to rest

Time to re-energize

Nothing to fear

Snow

Deep snow

You run

You run

And then you fall

You try again

And you fall again

You try again and again

Green 

By Addi

I love green

It reminds me of summer

It smells like fresh grass

It tastes like kiwi

It feels like a smooth leaf

It sounds like trees blowing in the wind

It looks like a creeper...PCHOO!

Birds chirp and chirp and fly

Swoop 

Grab a mouse

Many birds around the world

Sea Glass

By Zoey M

Sparkles, smooth, clear, soft

It's sea glass

Bright

Different colors

Love

It can be light

Or it could be dark

Because it's sea glass

Fluffy cotton ball

Shimmery and sparkly

Blue

By Ellie

Blue is the color of blueberries

I see blue everywhere

I taste blueberries

I smell blue when I color

My favorite color is blue

Four Winds

The first graders learned about Owls during this month's Four Winds lesson. They learned how the eyes, ears, feathers, feet and digestive system help these nighttime hunters. They listened to owl calls and investigated owl pellets to gather clues about their diet. Thank you Fred and Terry for leading this month's lesson!

Poetry

We started another writing unit this week. First graders are learning how to see the world through "poets' eyes". They are working on using their senses to describe objects. 

Four Winds

The first graders learned about birds today. They learned about different types of feathers and how they help birds. The children also closely examined individual feathers to see and learn about the different parts.  Thank you Lauren and Eric for leading this month's lesson!
