There are many fun poems you can use to enrich science with language arts. You might have students illustrate a poem you’ve found, choose one to share with classmates or family members, or write a new poem that can be shared with all future classes – kids love thinking their work will be added to your resources and used again and again as you teach the topic.
In future posts, I’ll share poems I found written by familiar poets like Jack Prelutsky, Jeff Moss, and Shel Silverstein that you can use to teach topics like force, motion, light, and sound. You might also find these resources useful:
