Remember that
Gratitude Jar I showed you how to make from an unwanted glass jar?
Turn it into the
structure for a poem!
My students have
a massive writing project due at the end of the year. Before they turn it in, I have them flipped
through it and highlight their favorite words or phrases. The idea is to find things that sound really
good that they are proud of writing. The students take turns saying their words or phrases out loud in a kind of "jam session," which is random,
quirky, and fun. It's like a spontaneous poem.
The student write their words and phrases on circular bits of cardstock that I provided. Some add illustrations or doodles.
