April Poetry Pack ~ w/ daily Shared Reading plans {Common Core Aligned}

It's National Poetry Month! This primary poetry pack will take you through April with 4 original poems and daily extension activities. The extension activities are also great for your poetry center. My poems are always simple, rhythmic, and fun for students. This month I have included DAILY SHARED READING PLANS for Kindergarten and 1st grade that are Common Core Aligned. I have included the plans in the preview file if you would like to check them out. You will see how easy it is to fit in a little poetry every day!
