Back to School Planning

 

It's about time to start planning for the new school year. A great way to start the school year is with these fun poems and the many POSSIBILITIES for using them in your classroom.

From allaying 1st day jitters to establishing rules & procedures for the year, these poems will get your students off to a great start!


Incorporate Social Emotional Learning (SEL) with poems like the one above.  SEL will have a great impact on everything from developing strong, positive relationships to academic achievement. Reassure all of your students that everyone has some jitters at the start of a new school year.  Your timid learners will especially appreciate knowing that you will not be cruel if they have forgotten something.


Above is another poem that deals with feelings, this time focusing on learning new things and how frustrating that can be.  Use the POETRY POSSIBILITIES to lay the foundation for employing patience and practice.

Use the following poem to introduce concrete poetry.  Invite your poets to try one of their own. When poetry is this fun, everyone loves it!


This collection of 12 poems includes a broad range of reading levels, making it appropriate to both primary and intermediate classrooms. This will allow teachers to accomodate students reading above and below grade level with differentiated instruction.
