Autumn and Fall Writing Papers
As a Native New Englander, there’s always a heightened sense of excitement as summer wanes and the signs of autumn begin to appear. There’s nothing grander than seeing sugar maples dressed in their finest, brilliant red and orange foliage as the temperatures dip and Mother Nature paints her forests.
I designed these autumn writing pages with poetry and fall foliage stories in mind.
Included in the packet are 21 lined pages on which students can write stories and poems after viewing websites that are included.
I love adding student art work to resources I create, so there are four pages where they either draw a picture or color images. I’ve reduced opacity of a few images so students can write their stories or poems over them.
The page with the old stonewall is designed as a nonfiction page. Students use their imaginations to answer the “Who”, “What”, “Why”, “When”, “Where” and “How” responses. Background information, about our old New England stonewalls, is included.
Teaching suggestions are included and websites will walk your students through color splashed woods, past old barns and covered bridges to witness Mother Nature at her best.
