Today I am featruing the haiku of fourth grade students in Mr. Yates class.
up trees squirrels race
splitter rain falls on windows
crunch leaves fall on ground
–Yvette
the grass is silver
I like when it snows winter
winter very cold
–Carter
outside is cold now
rainbow sparkling in morning light
shine in gold sunlight
–Daniil
a falling snowflake
as I look up at the sky
it’s winter white snow
–Marina
hawks perch high on tree
feathers keep them warn outside
puff up to heat up
–Kiernan
snow is falling down
beautiful snow is coming
snow is here now
–Kelsi
snowflake in mid-air
trees are breaking from wind breath
cocoa warming up
–Gage
a big fat snowman falls
while the wind drifted in the air
snow on ground felt soft
–Kai
birds are too cold now
branches have no leaves on them
crispy crunchy grass
–Deven
frosty grass is hard
outside is frosted snowballs
frost freezes my nose
–Lilly

Please tell the students it’s a wonderful time to receive these as we in Denver are experiencing a hugh snowstorm. I loved each word & think each one got it right about snow!
My favorite is the one by Gage:
snowflake in mid-air
trees are breaking from wind breath
cocoa warming up
–Gage
Now heating up hot cocoa (with mallows!) 🙂
