Words and Images: 

Paintings to Poetry

For the past few weeks, the 3rd and 4th graders have been making drawings based on poems. This week we reversed the process, writing poetry based on the images we saw. 

The first painting we looked at was called "First Steps After Millet", by Vincent Van Gogh 

Next, we looked at an illustration from "The Napping House" written by Audrey Wood and illustrated by Don Wood.
