Today we talked about how writers sometimes give themselves little challenges by making up games for themselves as they write. A game works best when the rules aren't too hard or too easy. Cole wrote a poem about names. He said, "I'm rhyming each name with another word." Then, he decided to give himself an even bigger challenge - to rhyme each name with a kind of animal. He was playing a little game... "Can I do it? Can I come up with an animal rhyme for each name?"
Let's see how he did...
A Name Poem
Cole
Mole
Sam
Clam
Neil
Seal
Patrick
The End
Have a good night!
PS - Our field trip is rescheduled for Monday morning, 9AM!
Glad he is encouraged to be creative and challenge himself. These poems have been really fun to read. I wonder what animal WOULD rhyme with Patrick...??
