POETRY BOOKS
Poetry and rhyme offer a fun and natural way for children to explore and discover language.  Each week, Room 5 will learn a new poem in class.  We will usually illustrate the poem in class, however sometimes children will need to illustrate their poem at home.  Children can share their poem with you for reading on Fridays.  Many of the poems, the children will be able to read to you, although sometimes they will need your help to read the poem.  It is beneficial to read the poem several times aloud, so children can practice fluent and rhythmic reading.
If children forget to bring home a reading book on any other day of the week, they may like to choose a poem from their poem book as their home reading for the night.
I hope you enjoy reading these poems and rhymes with your children.
