Jackie's Demo

Today was so much fun. I don't consider myself very artistic so I have trouble doing many "art" projects with my students. I definitely could do this with them. I'd love to do a tree for each season of the year and then we could link it to a piece of writing. Maybe an I AM poem or some "free" writing about their trees.

I also really enjoyed the poetry aspect of Jackie's lesson. I'm always trying to find more ways to encorporate poetry into my classroom. We have a weekly poem and then some extras about the seasons, weather, holidays, etc. but about an art project would be great!

Thanks Jackie!!
