Upsala 3rd and 4th grade students were learning about shape poems during their Language Arts block. Shape poems take the shape of the subject of the poem. They also use words and spaces to create shape. The students used onomatopoeia as well as alliteration to create mental pictures of the topic of the poem! Their topic was Halloween!
