Today is the last day of school! I helped Libby clean out her office as we discussed the year and what she had learned. We read "Poetry Speaks to Children," a collection of poetry that I enjoy reading with children her age. Libby particularly enjoyed "Bear Song" by Kay Ryan, "Sneeze" by Maxine Kumin, "Mrs. Mitchell's Underwear" by Dennis Lee, and "Rabbit" by Mary Ann Hoberman. We talked about how sometimes poems don't make sense, and that's ok!
