We have been writing haikus. So I would like to share one:

Chocolate

Yummy chocolate.
Good cold, good warm and gooey.
I love to eat it.

Personal Narratives

Collection of personal
narratives by John
Sciezka.


Miss Payne has made us write some personal narratives. Not everyone was into it but some of us were into it. Here are some ideas...Max's was about hockey. Some of the ideas were in poems and some of them are on there second one. A lot of people had different ideas like family jokes and a really big injury. A lot of us had a lot of chores - like washing dishes, cleaning our room, taking the trash out, making our beds, and feeding our pets - and that is one of our ideas. Everyone has to do some work on one every day. Some of us have zoomed ahead and have stopped whatever there doing and are deep, deep into there book. Can't wait to read them all. Most of the kids really like writing them and some don't.

School: A Small Poem

We read a book of "small" poems by Valerie Worth to get inspiration for our own small poems. I would like to share one:


                                                School
Lots of kids go to school. Some schools are collossal and proud,while some are small and have only a few rooms. But they all are special in their own nice way. Some kids giant, some kids tiny. Some math problems hard,some math problems easy. Some schools with lots of property,some schools with only a midget-size piece of property. They're all different in their own, special, happy, nice way. Some schools with old kids,some schools with young kids. Some schools with well-behaved kids, some schools with bad-behaved kids. Some schools with funny kids,some schools with serious kids. Some schools with nice, encouraging teachers, some schools with strict teachers. Every school is different in their own happy, nice, fun, unique way.
