Miles to Go

This week, we are learning more about Poetry. We talked about the elements of poetry and the forms.



After we learned about keys details of poetry, we visited the Epic app and read a book called, "Exploring Poetry".








Ms

 Ms. Leom shared several examples of poetry by several authors. We listened the rhyme or free verse, the rhythm, and examples of figurative language.











The book, Exploring Poetry was so exciting!! We were able to make connections! The book has QR codes, which we are creating our own in writing. The book references Greek Mythology, which some students are reading in Reading Flex.
One of the poems Ms. Leom read was Robert Frost's, "Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening", and it ends with the repeating line, "and miles to go before I sleep." We have miles to go as we continue to learn more about poetry!
