Opis

Teach Haiku, Close Reading, and Cross-Curricular Learning with Riddle-ku

"Riddle-ku: Haiku for Very Close Reading" makes teaching haiku to children easy with 30 American-style (5-7-5) haiku by award-winning poet Laura Purdie Salas (author of "BookSpeak ," "Water Can Be...," and more). Each haiku speaks from the voice of a common object recognizable to kids from kindergarten age up. These riddle poems make excellent close reading passages, as students study images and text and make inferences to answer them. A Note from the Poet with each poem shares Laura's writing process. Vivid language and rich nonfiction content-along with a sense of wonder and a dash of humor-make these poems engaging and accessible. Extension materials by Marcie Flinchum Atkins, including close reading activities, share ideas for springboarding from these riddle poems/haiku into deeper learning across many content areas.

Sample:

"This merry-go-round
spins upside down: I'm singing
the room full of breeze"

Answer: "ceiling fan"

A Note from the Poet:

"Most haiku don't have a sing-song rhythm (da-DUM, da-DUM, etc.). But since a ceiling fan has a steady beat, I had fun trying to make this haiku have a beat, a rhythm. "
