Winter is a great time for anything doing with snowmen, and this snowman poetry set, A Snowman’s Dream, will work well for your students as fluency practice with repeated readings or in conjunction with your favorite winter mentor texts. Students also work on comprehension and word analysis skills with the additional printables included as well.

HOW TEACHERS CAN USE THE SNOWMAN POETRY SET:

Reading fluency is a critical skill for all primary readers. Using a Poem of the Week program is a well established fluency building strategy. This poem is a preview from my Poem of the Week Winter Edition that includes 10 original poems with blackline illustrations and color illustrations for fall and the beginning of winter as well as two analysis pages that will help your students with word study skills, comprehension of the poem, and specifically visualizing using text details.
