Poetry Book Talk:
The Shape of Me and Other Stuff by Dr. Seuss is a great book for introducing poetry because it is a fantastic way for children to understand how poetry works due to the rhyming throughout the book. Teachers and their students could do an activity together where they predict what will come next in the story to help them practice producing poetry. Although, this is not the only thing that can help students, unrealted to the topic, students can also learn self-perception and acceptance of themselves and others due to the topic of the story.
