I Hear – Yo Escucho Poems 3rd & 4th Grade @ Avondale Logandale Fall 2019

How do you make noise on paper?/ ¿Cómo haces ruido en el papel?
In our second week of poetry class, we explored using poetry to express the soundtracks of our lives.
We read a set of sound poems together before taking some time to brainstorm and write our own sound poems about the sounds we hear at school, at home, and around our city and wrote poems to tell this story.

I Hear Nayelis R.

I hear footsteps they sound like tap, tap.
I hear birds they sound like tweet, tweet.
I hear kids laughing they sound like ha, ha ha.
I hear waves they sound like woosh.
I hear a bee it sounds like zzzzzzzzz.
I hear chips, it sounds like crunch crunch.
I hear a car it sounds like vroom, vroom.
