“I Am” Poem Planner
Think of this page as a sort of Instagram page where kids illustrate and add captions to each of the prompts. When they’ve filled in all the blocks, they can review them, then color in the hearts for the ones they like best.
On this page, students write their final poem, then add an illustration to accompany it. You can have students trim off the directions at the top to make this page perfect for bulletin board displays!
