Encourage your child to take in the tastes, smells, sights, sounds and textures of the year's spookiest holiday with a sensory poem!

Not every poem needs to be about leaves and love. If your fifth grader is more attached to his phone or computer, introduce him to the apostrophe poem.

Start by writing an acrostic poem, but then get ready for a writing challenge that makes an acrostic trickier to write.
