This outdoor poetry activity encourages students to create sensory-based poems inspired by your outdoor space.
Teaching Structure:
Take students outside and have them sit quietly to observe their surroundings, focusing on what they can see, hear, smell, touch, and feel. After reflecting, they will use the differentiated poem templates to write their poems, incorporating sensory details.
Encourage students to use vocabulary that matches their ability level, and once completed, share the poems as a class. These poems can also be displayed for a creative showcase of their work!
