I'm taking the advice from the poet who has given so much to help us all, including students and teachers, write poetry. I'll be moving from A to Z, obviously needing to combine a few to make it all come out to 30. FYI—Sometimes, Paul Janeczko offers a prompt to write a poem that begins with the specific alphabet letter instead of a poem type. It will be fun to be open to writing in all kinds of ways!

The prompt this time is a "how-to" poem!
I'm waiting to post after my own viewing of my "partial" eclipse, but also posting the poem I wrote when my daughter and granddaughters traveled to my brother's in Missouri to watch the 2017 total eclipse. I hope those who have planned to watched this one in 2024 experience the same awe that we will always remember.
I'm just seeing a partial eclipse but it's very exciting! I have glasses left from last fall's annular eclipse!
How-To - After Viewing
morning eclipse
thoughts of years of moon tales
what stories will we tell?

Linda, I remember that picture of the girls. We only got a grayish sky and a shadow of something that may be a partial eclipse. We did watch the event on TV. I am in awe of the way the sun was blocked by the moon. How-To - After Viewing is a neat small poem.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Carol. Sorry you had too much overcast. I saw the partial today, sat outside with a book and my glasses! The earlier eclipse is a wonderful memory!
DeleteSo exciting when we could first see that "fingernail shadow" that was the preview of all to come! We could hear kids out in their yard a few houses down excitedly shouting, "You can see it, you can see it!"
