Scranimal Poems in 2nd Grade

Applemon Fish (apple & demon fish)

After reading Jack Prelutsky's Scranimals, students in 2nd grade wrote their own Scranimal poem by combining a plant and animal into a new creature and writing a poem about it. See examples below.

Tangerape (tangerine & ape)
Swinging through the treetops is a fragile tangerape.
You barely get to see one, despite their planned escape.
Their body is all orange but they have good grip on hands.
That hold on tight, very tight, just like rubber bands.

Seachark (seaweed, chimp, & shark)
Watch out for a seachark, he's very bad to meet.
You should get away before you are his treat.
He can go on land.
He does not have a band.
So never ever go near a seachark.
