Ahh! Poetry Friday is here!

My poem comes straight off of the Giggle Poetry Website, which my former students have always loved. I hope you enjoy today’s selection AND will share the Giggle Poetry Site with your students as well.

I Brought My Grandma’s Teeth to School
by Robert Pottle

I brought my grandma’s teeth to school to share for show-and-tell.
Billy showed his sneakers. It was more like show-and-smell.
Kevin brought a violin and showed he couldn’t play.
Katie brought he snake to school—too bad it got away.
Our class likes show-and-tell a lot, so we were sad to hear
our teacher say that show-and-tell is canceled till next year.

Poetry Friday is being hosted at AmoxCalli this week.
