  Silly Sounds & Scribbles by Sean E Avery
Picture
Silly Sounds and Scribbles poems are best suited for children between the ages of 5 and 10, but bigger kids like them too! If you read something with rhythm, rhyme and repetition enthusiastically, anyone can get sucked into the fun. 
 
I encourage you to read the HOW IT WORKS section before downloading these poems to ensure you’re getting the most out of the resources.
 
The newest poems will be at the top of the page. Each poem has a link to download the PDF and the PowerPoint (PPT) files. The PDF file contains the story and teacher resources. The PowerPoint is for interactive whiteboards and is the ideal way to display a poem for a shared reading experience. PDF for print, PPT for screens.

Happy reading and if your children do some fabulous work with the poems, please let me know! I always respond to questions and comments and I love to hear new ideas for activities to make the shared reading experience more exciting.
