Fall Leaf Acrostic Poems

Posted in Homeschooling

As we continue to study leaves at our house I thought it would be fun to try doing an acrostic type poem with the children, but I added a fun little twist to it *grin*. Instead of writing out our poems on paper or paper shaped like leaves I thought we'd use the real thing!

K went outside and found a really large leaf that we dried really well and then using permanent marker wrote FALL LEAF down the left side of it and then he filled in the rest with words that reminded him of fall :) Right now I have placed it in between the pages of the phone book to keep it from curling in the heat and to dry nice and flat. We're going to incorporate it into our fall lapbook we're working
on :)

Blessings,

~About Me~

Hello from Canada! I am a homeschooling mom to 3 very rambunctious children ages 10, 6 & 3 years old while holding down the fort as tug boat captain 'Dad' sails the seven seas *grin*. We're located on 40 acres in a tiny rural community in beautiful British Columbia and this is my quirky journal about our homeschool journey, running my home based business 'RosyUndPosy' making 'Eco Friendly Bags 4 Green Living', and everyday life home on the farm. Hope you enjoy your visit :)
