February Fun with Common Core

Image
How to have February fun in the classroom with common core: February is a great time to write poetry. Have students write simple poetry like a couplet, which is 2 lines that rhyme. Perhaps, you would like them to write a little more. Then how about a quatrain that is 4 lines that rhyme in various patterns. For example, lines 1 and 2 rhyme and 3 and 4 rhyme. Or mix it up a bit with lines 1 and 3 rhyming and lines 2 and 4 rhyming. Have students write about friendship, love, hearts, candy, and flowers. It's all a lot of fun! Here are just a couple of the Common Core Standards: W.K.1, W.K.2 Each grade level requires writing.
