In reading we are studying poetry. We are identifying elements of poetry such as rhyme, rhythm, and meter. Here's some of us reading The Moon's The North Wind's Cookie by Vachel Lindsay

 Here's some of us reading Perhaps You'd Like to Buy a Flower by Emily Dickinson

At the end of the day we have poetry sharing. Here are a few videos from the poetry corner for you to watch!
