Johnny Appleseed Bio Poem Activity

These Bio Poem pages will be useful in your class study of Jonathan Chapman, better known as Johnny Appleseed, or your Apple Unit. Great poetry activity for Fall literacy centers. I’ve included pages to walk your students through the writing process. Page 1: Graphic Organizer for students to brainstorm ideas about Johnny. They are asked to write adjectives that describe Johnny, what he enjoys, feels, wonders, fears, cares about, is able to do and what he dreams. Page 2: Draft page. This page starts each line of the bio poem. Students fill in each line and then do a spell check with each other and you. Page 3: This is a Final Draft Writing Page. Students write the final draft of their entire poem. Pages 4 & 5: Graphics for students to color, cut and glue along with their final poem. All get mounted on a 12″ x 18″ piece of construction paper.
