Animal Poems (Kindergarten)

In Ms. Icho’s kindergarten today, we read “On Monday, I am a Dragon” by Francisco X. Alarcón. We talked about our favorite animals and what animals we sometimes feel like. We also talked about streeeeeetching our ideas to add more detail. Today, we practiced that by adding information about when we feel like a particular animal.
