Oakdale Elementary

It is Teacher Appreciation Week at Oakdale.  In anticipation of this, Shannon came up with a fun idea!  We read poetry books with haiku to the students.  We taught them how to create a haiku.  Then we sent the teacher away and helped the students created a haiku about their teacher.  They did a great job!  We printed them, made frames and displayed them in the media center.

We used three books for this project:

I Haiku You by Betsy Snyder
Guyku by Bob Raczka (LOVE this one)
The Hound Dog's Haiku by Michael J. Rosen
