I created this Poetry Picnic to introduce our third graders to poetry. At four different work stations, we meet TEKS and Common Core standards, responding to questions on food shaped papers that we glue on paper plates. Free verse, humorous poetry, stanza, rhyming dictionary, lines, and narrative poetry are included in this learning experience.
At our elementary school, we invited parents to share these poetry learning centers with us, and we had a great time working together! If your teachers and students are intimidated by poetry, this is a great way to make it fun and engaging for them.
I include directions, signs, printables, a parent invitation, and even photos of our Poetry Picnic. I held this event with our third grade students. I think that it could be adapted down to second grade or up to fourth grade or fifth grade.
