For my poetry centers, I print them on cardstock and laminate for durability. Once I cut them out, I hole punch the top corner and attach them to a book ring. This makes them super easy to include with my poetry center / poetry activities.

Students then take the ring of questions out and continue their poetry work by asking each other the questions.

  1. Laxmi N. –

    This was an integral part of our poetry centers, we usually use them during the breaks. Thank you so much, :)!!!

  2. Jean G. –

    This was a great resource to include in our independent work time while I was reading with a small group.

  3. Hannah Moffitt –

    My students loved this activity. They were very engaged in the learning.

  4. Jennifer Montemayor –

    This is an excellent resource that I have used with my bilingual students.

  5. Christy Z. –

    Students in grades 3-6 used the cards to wrap up our poetry study. They worked cooperatively to respond to 6 cards of their choosing. We then discussed as a class. The students liked when their group had the same thoughts as another group or totally had a different take from another group. They enjoyed supporting their reasoning while knowing that everyone can interpret poems differently.

  6. Hey Little Lumieres –

    Great visual prompts!

  7. Jennifer K. –

    Thank you!

  8. Gemma C. –

    This resource generated great discussion in our rotations and was able to be used over and over. Thank you!

After your purchase is complete, you can download your resource from your account on The Butterfly Teacher website or use the download link included in your order confirmation email. If you don’t see your confirmation email, please check your spam or junk folder.

What is your refund policy?

Because our resources are digital products that are available for immediate download, all sales are generally final. If you accidentally purchase the same resource twice or there is a problem with the file or delivery of your purchase from our site, please use our Contact Us form so we can review the situation and help. That keeps the door open for genuine store-side issues without implying that every customer-side tech problem could lead to a refund.

I have another question about your store….

No. All resources sold through The Butterfly Teacher shop are digital products. Nothing will be shipped to you by mail. After your purchase is complete, you’ll be able to download your files electronically.
