Welcome back to the 10-Day “Coffee and Books” Read-Aloud Challenge. Today is Day 7 and the prompt is POETRY.
I love incorporating poetry into our homeschool routine!
Day 7: Poetry

When you read-aloud to your children, you are a reading role model.
As you read aloud, you shower your children with vocabulary and rich language. This exposure will help them to become readers and writers!

The power of poetry…
Reading poetry with children can be a magical experience. Children delight in playing with language and these poetry books are sure to captivate their imagination!

Today’s prompt is POETRY. I hope you are able to find a favorite a poetry book on your shelf, at the library, or by borrowing from a buddy.
