For the Love of Puppies and Poetry!

Puppies.

Poetry.

Cuteness overload, right?

What better combination of two of my favorite things to help my primary grade students practice reading fluency, recognizing vocabulary context clues, and write poems of their own during the
month of February!

PUPPY LOVE POEMS

FOUR ORIGINAL POEMS

Four original poems are included in this resource, along with
supplemental worksheets that will help your students
build reading, writing, and rhyming skills all month long!

FOUR WEEKS OF POETRY WORK

I apologize for the poor lighting in these photos!  I am not sure WHAT the trouble was?
Probably my tired eyes, poor lighting, and the need for an iPhone update!

This persuasive letter template was added on 2/6/17!  I hope that
your students enjoy writing a letter to their families that convinces
them to get them their favorite pet!  :)

MORE DOGGONE GOOD RESOURCES

And if you love dogs as much as I do, then these literacy packs
will certainly give your students something to bark about!

Even though both of my hound dogs have now crossed the Rainbow Bridge,  their
legacy lives on in two of my first and favorite resources.  My students
love reading, writing, and rhyming about my beloved and missed Brutus and Rose!

As always, thank you so much for sharing my story!  

Continue to hold a song in your heart and teach your children well!
