Parent Guide > One of a Kind
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 "One of a Kind" by J. Patrick Lewis.
In J. Patrick Lewis' poem "One of a Kind," a speaker describes a turtle who believes it has seen everything.
As we read, we will be discussing the theme of Growing Up as it relates to the text. We are trying to answer this big question :
"What does it mean to be grown up?"
Ways to support your child:

Ask your child about this poem at home:
