First Day of Winter

In December, we learned a poem called, The First Day of Winter. Students used the words from the poem to illustrate a winter scene, from the viewpoint of being inside a house. Here are the words to the poem:

First Day of Winter

Fall has fallen.
Winter rises.
Now's the time
For cold surprises.
Icicles' long pointed noises.
Flakes like daisies, diamonds, roses.
Snow up to the windowsill
And everything so very still.

Take a look at our illustrations:
