Name Poem


Allison
A strong
Young girl
Who has yet to show her worth

Courage
A name
In which
I have possessed over the years for my great achievements

Quiet
The one
With not a lot to say on the outside
But on the inside

Secretive
Many stories
To tell
But no one to tell them to

Love
Loving in the heart
With nothing but sympathy
For the underprivileged

Scared
Scared to show the world
Like a child
In a tornado

Perfect
Maybe in school
Not on the outside
But on the inside

Bold
Finally spoken
My stories have been told
And I shall live with them forever


This is Just to Say


I have shot
You with a
Sharp arrow
In the leg

Your were probably
Going to run
Like a cheetah on
That in track

Forgive me
For you
Decided to
Say no


Symbol Poem


A bear
who was once warm
but now is cold

A bear
Now vanished
Like its love

A bear
With secrets to tell
But now has hid them away

A bear
Who was so close
But now so far away

A bear
Now with no color
But the color of a stone

A bear
Who was my best friend
But now my worst enemy

Favorite Place Poem


 Anticipation

Dark
Dark night
Waiting for the sun to rise

Cool
Cool morning
Watching the parents sleep

Fun
Fun morning
Presents all around the tree

Bright
Bright paper
All scattered among the floor

Finally
Finally awake
Open the presents

Cool
Cool gifts
That every child loves

White
White snow
Too cold to go outside


Hot
Hot chocolate
That melts in your mouth

Red
Red and green
The colors of my favorite holiday

Colored
Colored paper
Lined up among the tree

Twinkling
Twinkling lights
And blue bulbs to make it sparkle

Warm
Warm fire
And stockings hanging above it

Christmas
Christmas morning
My favorite place to be

Thursday December 13th

Hey!!!

Happy Thursday. Today in our first 3 classes we learned a lot. In Geography we learned about what happened in the Middle East. In Reading, we talked about our essay questions for the Book Thief.



Book Thief Review Questions


In English, we looked at the song Firework by Katy Perry. Then we used our poetry themes to decide what each line means in the song. Mrs. Morrow then showed us the video of the tornado that tore apart the whole school.
