The Clean Up Song
Hello!
This is The Clean Up Song. It's an original song written by me, Sara bee Garro. After I teach this song to the children, I use the recording basically everyday. Bonus Tip: To help speed up the clean up, I like to play a faster song after this one like "What I like About You" It really gets the kids moving : )
If you download my song, please leave some feedback - I'd love to know what you think!

"Snowmen at Night"
This audio recording of one of my favorite books SNOWMEN AT NIGHT by Caralyn and Mark Buehner is read to "Waltz of the Snowflakes" by Tchaikovsky. I have used the entire piece of music by leaving space at the end of the book to ask the question "What do YOU think snowmen do when we are not watching?"

This is an ingenious audio sketch in which a flustered director is casting for a reading of Jabberwocky with the most random candidates possible. Each participant steps forward to read his stanza in awkward, silly and entertaining styles. By the end, we hear the full performance with each speaker giving his all for the crowd.
The vocals are unusual and filled with aural hooks and references for the auditory learned to seize upon, enjoy and connect. The nearly 13 minutes goes through the entir

Bullying prevention self esteem song
This amazing little song has a long history of inspiring students to view offbeat classmates as special and interesting rather than odd. We have witnessed this little Nonconformist song turn "different" into the new "cool" at an entire school! Great for empowering kids with low self esteem who need a boost, "Nonconformist" also makes many challenged students feel quite special, as in: "I'm a nonconformist!"

Find Poetry resources | TPT
Learn more about poetry resources
Poetry encourages students to engage with language, explore their thoughts and feelings, and connect with the broader human experience. If you’re a teacher or parent looking for printable and digital poetry resources, look no further. TPT has an extensive collection of resources, created by other teachers, that are designed to help with any need across grade levels.
If you want to make poets out of younger students in elementary grades, then acrostic poems or fill in the blank poems are the perfect place to start. (In fact, many poetry resources on TPT include templates so your students can easily get started producing their own poetry, whether it’s a haiku, or limerick.) For older students in middle and high school, you can find an array of resources to teach them about everything from iambic pentameter, figurative language, to famous poets from history. With plenty of TPT resources at your fingertips, you can sharpen your students’ poetry skills in no time.
Fun and engaging poetry activities to try
Teaching students about poetry can be an engaging and creative experience. Here are a few ideas for poetry activities that you can find on TPT to help you introduce and explore the world of poetry with your students:
Poetic Device Scavenger Hunt
Distribute some poems and have students identify and highlight poetic devices like similes, metaphors, alliteration, onomatopoeia, and imagery. Discuss what these are and the overall impact on the reader's experience.
Poetry Analysis Jigsaw
Divide students into small groups, assigning each group a different poem. Have each group analyze the assigned poem's themes, tone, and literary devices, and present their findings to the class.
Poetry Slam or Performance
Organize a poetry slam where students can perform poems they’ve written themselves or those written by famous poets. This will help build confidence and strengthen their public speaking skills.
Writing Poetry from Different Perspectives
Ask students to write a poem from the perspective of an inanimate object or an animal to foster empathy and encourage creative, out-of-the-box thinking.
Creating Found Poetry
Provide magazines, newspapers, or online articles. Have students cut out interesting words and phrases, and use them to create their own unique poems.
These (and other!) activities can help deepen your students’ appreciation for poetry and enhance their creative writing skills.
