Amazing Acrostic Poems​

Written by 
Mrs. Dingman's 5th Grade
August 2016
          We became poets and illustrators during our first week back, creating some amazing acrostic poetry using the word "school". We expanded what we knew about acrostics, weaving our words into free verse form. We wrote with insight, thoughtfulness, humor, and creativity. 


          We made great use of our classroom computers as we prepared our poetry using Microsoft Word. We will continue to practice using the Spell Check Tool, understanding that careful checking is still needed. Spell Check doesn't understand context! 


Enjoy our poetry!
