However, I have had multiple teachers use this unit with fourth graders. Based off their comments they said they were extremely satisfied with the unit. Definitely check out the product preview in my TpT listing. It shows you everything that's included. That will give you a good idea on if it would be a good fit for your fourth graders.Amanda Terhunehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09676227103092401181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6150917656919764348.post-13885590480520622682022-04-20T19:23:19.137-05:002022-04-20T19:23:19.137-05:00Since this is titled for PRIMARY GRADES and you la...Since this is titled for PRIMARY GRADES and you label it for GRADES 1-4, I am wondering how fitting it truly is for year-end Fourth Graders?

I'm wondering if you teach the poems in any particular order - as far as complexity, ease of writing, etc. Do you cover all of these poems in 10 days?Leeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02673510966341450605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6150917656919764348.post-20343806492097245632019-04-30T11:32:12.867-05:002019-04-30T11:32:12.867-05:00I don't have poems available to download or pu...I don't have poems available to download or purchase for the poetry battle. I use poems that I have found and love over the years. Shel Silverstein, Brod Bagert, Bruce Lansky, and Jack Prelutsky poems are my favorite. Definitely check them out. They have books of poems that I pull from.<br /><br />I list a couple poems that I pair with a specific poem type. However, I mostly read the example poem and go through the poem parts when introducing each poem.Amanda Terhunehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09676227103092401181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6150917656919764348.post-45114136013038784052019-04-30T08:57:15.690-05:002019-04-30T08:57:15.690-05:00Do you have the poems that you use for the Poetry ...Do you have the poems that you use for the Poetry battle bracket available to download/purchase? Are they different genres of poems that match each poem that is taught within this unit, or just any assortment of poems?Brenda B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05111983980442042072noreply@blogger.com
