We started off our project by reading Fall Is Here, I Love It
by Elaine Good. We continued to read other books on Fall. Our
favorite was Pumpkin Soup by Elaine Good. Using these books
as motivators we set out to write our own acrostic poems. We used
Print Shop to illustrate our poems.

Our class poem was a bit more of a challenge.
We
had a difficult time agreeing on the theme and the wording. After
much work and discussions we came up with the following poem.
|
Fall is Here
Pumpkins in the fields waiting to be picked,
Leaves falling to the ground,
Waiting to be raked in piles for children to
Jump and hide.
Fall is Here, We Love it.
The smell of apple cider and apple pies baking,
Fill the kitchen with sweet smells.
Carmel apples be made with sprinkles,
are quite a treat.
Fall is Here, We Love it.
We thank God for the blessings given to us,
Thanksgiving is the time for this.
Week after week the leaves disappear,
Signaling that Fall will soon be gone for another year.
Fall is Here, We Love it. |
