What is the Poetry Cafe Party Kit?
⌄
Eight pages after the cover. Pages 1 to 3 are pennants that spell WELCOME TO OUR POETRY CAFE, page 4 is a big cafe sign with cocoa and a microphone, and page 5 is a manners poster with Listen, Snap, Clap and Cheer. Pages 6 to 8 hold 6 fold-up table numbers, 2 invitations with date, time, place and bring lines and a program with 12 reader lines.
Can I use the Poetry Cafe Party Kit at home and in the classroom?
⌄
Yes. We made it for 2nd Grade to 5th Grade holiday activities, and it works the same at home or at school. Families print it for one child and keep it where they will use it every day. Teachers print a copy per student or one for the whole room, whichever the day needs.
How many 2nd Grade to 5th Grade Poetry Month resources are there?
⌄
5 printable resources, all free to preview. There are 47 Poetry Month resources in all, from Kindergarten to 5th Grade, gathered on our Poetry Month activities page. Downloads are included with a ClassWeekly free trial, and every page prints on standard 8.5 x 11 paper.
What age are Poetry Month resources for?
⌄
These are written for 2nd Grade to 5th Grade students, roughly ages 7-11. Many teachers also use them a grade up for review or a grade down as an extension, so use the preview to judge the fit for a particular child.
Can I use these Poetry Month resources for homeschool?
⌄
Yes. Nothing here assumes a classroom of 25, so they work the same one-to-one at the kitchen table as they do in a 2nd Grade to 5th Grade classroom, a learning center, or a tutoring session.
