Free verse poetry about sports.

An excellent collection of sports poems for grades 3 and up. Perfect for a lesson on free verse or for demonstrating how arranging words on the page in a certain way can influence the pace, focus, and tone for the reader.

This is a beautiful compilation of thirty-seven free verse poems about sports and what it means to be an athlete. The sound is rhythmic and melodic, whether read aloud or to yourself. While the author goes through soccer, baseball, football, gymnastics, wrestling, track, tennis and more, you also experience pleasure and pain with the players. This could be read as a reader’s theater with a class. Also, I see many children that would connect to these poems since sports are an important part of their life or their family’s lives. An extension for the classroom could be to pick a poem and create a symbol that represents that poem, a favorite and share/write to that.
