Poetry Memory:Wynken, Blynken, and Nod

Here they are reciting the poem: "Wynken, Blynken, and Nod" by Eugene Field.

 The easiest way to learn a poem or verse of any kind is to just say it every day.  I learned this one as a child too! :-)

They were a little distracted by the camera, so this gets pretty funny. :-)

Poetry Memory

Papa and Grammy gave the boysa poetry coloring book for Christmas. It has some great poetry, so I decided to use it for memory work.



We just finished learning "Who Has Seen the Wind" by Christina Rossetti.







We are currently working on "The Caterpillar", also by Christina Rossetti. They seem to enjoy this one quite a bit since they spent a lot of time this past fall picking up caterpillars. :-)
