Lesson Plan

Writing Fix: Bird Verb Poems

Curated by ACT

In this lesson, the mentor text entitled Birds, written by Kevin Henkes, is used. Students will do the art link included on the site first. Then students will work as a class to record verbs found in the mentor text. Then students will write a poem, using the recorded phrases, "around" their previously-painted art with a Sharpie pen.
