Grades 1-12, with parental supervision
This Language Arts Wednesday we are featuring this company that makes magnetized words that stick to refrigerators, cookie sheets, etc. Use them to create rhymes, poems, sentences, and cryptic messages.
At their website, you can use free virtual magnetized words to create fun, silly, and serious poetry – or to just have fun with words. Click on any one of the Magnetic Poetry games:
- Original Kit
- Kids’ Kit
- Happiness Kit
- Nature Poet
- Poet Kit
- Mustache Poet
- Geek
You can drag and drop the virtual magnetized words to create poems or whatever you or your child’s imagination can conceive.
There is great potential here to open a game and leave it on the computer screen in a heavily trafficked area of the house. Start one line of poetry and leave it unfinished. Invite those passing by to add a line or two. See what develops as everyone takes a turn.
Have fun!
