Science + Poetry = Classifying rocks

Here is another installment in my series of science poetry tied to science-themed picture books. My graduate student, Susan Williams (in my "Poetry for Children" class) selected the focus on �classifying rocks� from the series of professional resource books,"Picture Perfect Science Lessons" by Karen Ansberry and Emily Morgan (and published by the National Science Teachers Association). Here are her three infographics centered around learning about classifying rocks. The focus picture book pair is:
  • If You Find a Rock by Peggy Christian
  • Rocks: Hard, Soft, Smooth by Natalie M. Rosinky
Susan chose an excerpt from �If You Find a Rock� by Peggy Christian as the poem to accompany this pair of books. Below is a graphic featuring this book and others, followed by the featured poem, and then the Take 5 activities to accompany the poem along with a "bonus" poem, �My Rock� by Ken Slesarik from The Poetry of Science. Enjoy!
