CCSS.ELA- Reading: Literature- RL.1.4: Identify words and phrases in stories or poems that suggest feelings or appeal to the senses.
Students will use words and phrases that suggest feelings and appeal to the senses to visualize what is happening in each poem that we read. We will focus on specific words and phrases that have strong imagery to create visualizations.
CCSS.ELA- Reading: Literature- RL.1.10: With prompting and support, read prose and poetry of appropriate complexity for grade 1.
Students will read poems appropriate for first grade. This includes silly poems, shape/concrete poems, Science poems, and poems by Black authors. I will support students by reading the poems aloud and providing them with the text to follow along with. I will also help clarify literary devices such as alliteration, rhyme, and rhythm as well as unknown vocabulary words.
