Big & Little Friend Poets

 

Dear Big and Little Friends,

Mr. Levy and I noticed that you love to read and draw when we get our classes together! We know that you have a fine time writing and sharing poems so we decided to do this musical class project together. While listening to the recording of Vivaldi's Mandolin Concerto, Allegro, enjoy these beautiful poems with your family and friends. While everyone listened to the same piece of music, the poems you wrote and the drawings you illustrated were unique and original. What did you discover?

Listen to another piece of music and write up a 5 senses poem at home. Remember to include the beginnings: I see, I hear, I taste, I smell, and I feel to structure your poem then drop those beginnings when you rewrite your poem using standard spelling. Have fun, 4th and 1st grade poets! :-)

Love, Ms.LaRoche
