Learners should have knowledge of rhyming words and have read some poetry. The poetry form will be introduced. The students will the word and syllable count required for this type of poem. We will read some examples and write on together as a class. students will write a limerick in a guided writing lesson step by step. They will "publish" their work by making a clean copy of their work and adding a fun, creative illustration. Each student will share his/her poem with the rest of the class and receive feedback from peers and teacher.

Hi, my name is Miss Angie! I am a teacher of 20+ years. I follow a Charlotte- Mason/Waldorf inspired teaching philosophy and love teaching poetry, literature and handcrafts such as cross stich, embroidery, sewing and crochet. I am also passionate about tea and poetry tea times for a variety of age groups. I love allowing young minds to explore their creativity and believe in hands on/student led education.I believe in music and art as foundations for learning.
I have a BA in Speech and Drama with a minor in English and have taught music and theatre in addition to Language Arts , history and elementary school.
I'm also a mom of two fantastic daughters. The other love of my life is an adorable little Pomklee named Hunter.
