What is Red? :: Wrap Up #clrpoem

We just completed our first week of the Twitter Time :: Color/Colour Poem Project. 



The object of this collaborative project is to create digital images, share original poems, and publish through our classroom Twitter account using the hashtag #clrpoem! Each week a color of the visible spectrum will be showcased! Everyone is invited to participate!



ROY  G  BIV 

One way to remember the visible spectrum is the
ROY G BIV acronym.
(red-orange-yellow-green-blue-*indigo-violet)

Here are some highlights of What is RED week. Thank you to all who participated!

We kickstarted the RED week with a poem about our special friend Jolly George. 


That prompted a comment from England and a question from New York City. 

Which followed with our verse about Jolly George.

This poem started a conversation about hot sauce in space! 
Thank you, Krissy Venosdale from Texas!

This poem from Ms Kirsch in New York City was a great one, but needed a photo to complement it! 









So I shot a photo of an apple and gave it to the students!

How do I collect the photos and poems? One way is via Google Classroom. Here is a screenshot for next week, What is ORANGE?



We are looking forward to next week's Twitter Time!

What is ORANGE? 



What was your favorite RED poem?

What are some other ways to collect poems besides using Google Classroom?

  1. A week of red has made us think,
    Observe with care and share what we learn;
    We've jotted, we've snapped and shared a link,
    This week - get set! - it's ORANGE's turn!
