Find a simple poem and copy it on chart paper, skipping lines between each line of poetry for editing. Ask students to copy poem on paper, also skiiping lines on paper between each line of poetry. Cross them out with one color of marker.
Students then cross out the same nouns on their paper and replace the nouns with their own nouns.
After you have completed a lesson on verbs, do the same thing. Cross out the verbs on the master copy. Ask for volunteer verbs and add them above the crossed out verbs. Students do now have to have a specific idea in mind. Continue with whatever parts of speech you want to teach or review.
