Poetry Slam Jam, Writing Outside, Spring Break Presentations

Poetry Slam Jam
We have enjoyed our poetry unit very much. As we read, wrote and used poems, we also studied ways in which authors use literary techniques (hyperbole, idiom, alliteration, onomatopoeia, etc.) to create vivid images and emotions. The Poetry Slam Jam was a fun way to celebrate what we know.




Writing Outside
On Thursday, we took our writing assignments outside. Students were working on either poetry or realistic fiction. It was a beautiful afternoon and the Spring weather inspired our writing.



Spring Break Presentations 
Some of our students choose the 'create a poster presentation of a book you read' for their spring break bingo options. I snapped a few pictures of their presentations. The others can be seen temporarily on our bulletin board outside of the classroom.
