Ode to Favorite Foods

This week, we were all about food! We talked through what kind of poem an ode is, and how it celebrates something. Then we read two previous student odes: one about French toast and another on strawberries. Everyone then brainstormed about their favorite foods, what they tasted and smelled like, who or what it reminded them of, and then wrote their own odes about their favorite meals or foods. By the end of the hour, everyone was hungry and sharing delicious poems!
