This is a wonderful writing activity to do with the students during the 1st week of school. It reviews the parts of speech, doesn’t take long to complete, and makes a great bulletin board display. This pack includes a name poem template, student examples, and teacher directions.
I love doing this activity with the students during the 1st week of school. It’s a great creative writing project that reviews some of the parts of speech, doesn’t take long to complete, and makes a great bulletin board display. Parents love seeing the final copies during open house night. I have done this activity with students ranging from 2nd to 6th grade and have always had great success.
You could do this as a partner activity where students interview each other to answer the questions so they can get to know each other better too.
Be sure to take a photograph of each student on the first day of school. Then you can either import the picture when students are finished typing or you can print 4×6’s at your favorite photo center and glue them at the top of their final copies.
