The Bugs

Karla Kuskin is probably my favorite writer of poetry for kiddos. Today I brought her bug poem in to the kinders....

I am very fond

of bugs

I kiss them

and I give them hugs.

I gave the kiddos a template to write their own Kuskin style poems. Got some great ones.

I am very fond

of hats.

I wear them

and I give them pats.

I am very fond

of snakes

I kiss them

and I give them cakes.

I am very fond

of roses

I smell them

and I give them water

and seeds.

Okay, that last one is kind of weird, but kind of nice too.

2 more days to PiYP Day. The kinders are pumped.
