ALLITERATION! That was the theme of our poetry lesson when we wrote about Thanksgiving. Alliteration is when two or more words close together start with the same sound. Alliteration makes poetry sound super! Rhyming was optional, but the students had to think of words and phrases that were meaningful about Thanksgiving, and also include some examples of alliteration. Enjoy these fabulous poems!
T is for turkey and taking walks,
And Thanksgiving treats and thankful talks.
H is for happiness and heart,
And hosting parties, now let's start!
A is for autumn and love all around,
Eating apple pie, and leaves on the ground.
N is for nuts and new things,
And nice turkey that people bring.
K is for kitchens and leaves that go crunch,
And cranberries and cookies that I love to munch.
S is for my special school,
And spectacular cider that's sweet and cool.
~Sienna, 2nd grade
T is for trying your best and for terrific times.
H is for helpfulness and happiness.
A is for aunts and uncles and apple pie.
N is for nice things and for yummy nuts.
K is for kindness and Kendal and Cassie kisses and caring for others.
S is for sisters and brothers and for super times.
~ Sophia, 3rd grade
T is for terrific turkey and treats
to eat when the family meets.
H is for holiday happiness by the hearth
And giving thanks for the earth.
A is for absolutely amazing apple pie that I adore.
N is for November nights
when people are taking many bites.
K is for caring and curious cousins that are very creative.
S is for cider, stuffing, and soup for a spectacular supper.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE! I am thankful for my wonderful students!
