Apple Poem Freebies!

Now that school has started I've realized there's no way I can keep up with a weekly poetry linky. So I'm changing my Sunday Poetry Slam to a monthly affair. And as you can see, I'm very late to my own party.

I'd love it if you linked up with one or two September poems you use in your classroom.

Our theme this month is apples, so I have a bunch of apple poems for you.  The clipart is from mycuteclipart.com.  I've left lots of room on the templates for the children to draw their own illustrations.

Enjoy!

The poem above would be fun to act out with apples on craft sticks. You could have five children standing up with their apples then one sits down at the end of the poem. Repeat the poem singing "four little apples" etc. until there are zero apples on the tree.

Click on any image to grab all five poems.

Have a good one!
