Pumpkins!

Thought I'd share a poem we have been working on.  This poem has been giving us a lot of learning opportunity.  We have been talking about "describing" words.  We have practiced describing pumpkins in our classroom using words like: bumpy, smooth, orange, white, big, small, and stem. We have also searched for the popcorn (words that pop up everywhere) 'I'.  Lastly, the students have been having fun tracking the words (using a pointer to follow the words as they read) while using pointers during learning centre time.
