Welcome to the parent guide for this text! Read below to find out about what your child is reading in class and how you can support him/her at home.
This week in class, we’re reading "Blizzard" by Linda Pastan.
In this Linda Pastan poem, the speaker describes a snowstorm.
As we read, we will be discussing the theme of Human vs. Nature as it relates to the text. We are trying to answer this big question :
"Who's in control: humanity or nature?"
Ways to support your child:

Ask your child about this poem at home:
- What was "Blizzard" about?
