Title – Odes to my Classroom By – Maria Marrero Primary Subject – Language Arts Secondary Subjects – Other Grade Level – 2-6 This is a good end of year lesson to integrate poetry into language arts. I read aloud Odes by Pablo Neruda, Odas Elementales, and Gary Soto to my Spanish bilingual students. We talk about giving compliments to objects and things. I make a template that younger students have to fill in: Oh, my bilingual classroom My classroom is ___________ There are ___________ I learn _____________ and speak ____________ The classroom is not so ________ as a __________ and it is not _________ but it is _________ Oh, my bilingual classroom! For older students I talk about hyperbole, “an exaggerated compliment.” The students write their odes in both languages.
