This week the 2nd Graders took a look at Someone Puts a Pineapple Together, by Wallace Stevens. We inspected an actual pineapple to try and figure out how Stevens got such wild images out of a fruit. Have you ever looked at cloud and seen something else in it? It’s just like that! And then I asked the students to get ready to write their own images, to tell us what they envisioned within a mystery object. I pulled it out of my bag and it was… a purple cabbage! Cut in half for optimal viewing, of course.
