Poem of the Week

It's my personal challenge to provide a fun Poem of the Week --- obviously, each and every week.  The topics will vary by season, and with 52 poems each year, also by my mood and choice. I hope you enjoy every entry. 

Poem of the Week ~ Autumn Trees

A poem about autumn trees by Denise Rodgers on ClassroomPoems.com.

They don't last as long as the green, but wow! Autumn leaves are the best. Some are as pretty as flowers. in their gold, beige, red and orange. It's a gift we get from Mother Nature as summer slips away. Check out our other fall poems to share with the kids in your classroom. 

Poem of the Week ~ Scrappy September

September poem of the week by Denise Rodgers on ClassroomPoems.com.

September may not be as grim as all that. As a matter of fact it's September at this very minute and the sun is shining. This poem was obviously a reflection of my perception of reality just last week. (But it is colder than last month here in Michigan.) That's  a fact.) Please enjoy this poem and all the fall and autumn poems on this site. 

Poem of the Week ~ Bookworm

Bookworm poem of the week by Denise Rodgers on ClassroomPoems.com.

I love to see kids loving to read. Of course, reading is the first step to becoming a good writer. And we all want that for our students whether they be writing reports, stories, or poetry. 

Poem of the Week ~ Doodles!

DOODLES, a poem of the week by Denise Rodgers on ClassroomPoems.com.

Have your students open their journals (or supply them with pencil and paper), allow them to doodle as well as write a poem. Give them the freedom and see what happens. Next time, assign a topic for a poem that can be completed with or without the doodles. If the good stuff comes, please feel free to share on our publish poems page on this site. Happy doodling!

Poem of the Week ~ Eyebrows

Poem of the week about eyebrows by Denise Rodgers on ClassroomPoems.com.

Have you ever noticed the confusing look given when one eyebrow doesn't seem to know what the other eyebrow is doing? This is a fun look at one of the very little mysteries of life. Please enjoy this week's poem. 

Poem of the Week  ~ Mosquitos

Mosquito poem by Denise Rodgers on ClassroomPoems.com.

MOSQUITOS DON'T CARE is the poem of the week, and a very timely one as I have multiple bites on my arms, legs, and neck (which I hope are mosquitos).  Did you know that mosquitos use the blood they extract (suck) from your skin to make yet more mosquitos? I'm sure you'll agree that this just isn't fair! Please enjoy the poem. 

Poem of the Week  ~ Dandelions

The Dandelion Poem of the Week by Denise Rodgers on ClassroomPoems.com.

This poem of the week is a tribute to the lowly dandelion. Did you know that dandelion root tea has many health benefits? It can detoxify your liver, clear your skin, and help with your general digestion. (Keep this in mind before you bring out the herbicide.) Dandelion leaves are also delish in salads, as long as you add the other goodies and a good salad dressing. Enjoy this poem of the week, and enjoy those dandelions!
