The Singing Hen

 Leif and I have been doing word trees. You start with a word, and you can change one letter (or sound) and create the next word. Here was our word tree (I allowed a rule change for hen to hung): hen, hung, lung, long, song, sing, sung, sang
So, I wrote a poem (it's a little autobiographical):

The Singing Hen

The hen hung his head.
He longed to sing a song,
But his lungs could not sing.
So he listened to his heart,
And opened up his beak,
And sang a long song,
While his heart sang along.

And we watched a YouTube tutorial on how to draw hens, and then painted with water color.
Leif's (notice how he made it a singing hen):

Mine:

And I copied my drawing, and Owen painted:

Now Leif wants me to write a poem for ALL of our word trees! I think I'll have him start writing poetry as well.
