On this page you will find poems by students in our class. These students range in age from 6 years old to 9 years old. They have all participated in Writing Workshop developing their skills as writers in several different kinds of genres that include personal narrative, small moments and poetry. The students chose for themselves what they wanted to have on this page. We hope you enjoy their work.



Our Turtles
By: Alyssa


We have turtles,
BIG and small,
Dark green,
Light green,
Many types of green.
They hibernate,
In winter's time.
We find a grasshopper,
On the ground.
They walk slowly,
They don't scare the thing,
They bite it,
They chew it,
Now swallow it down.
What a lovely treat this is.
We buy food,
Catch it too.
Our two turtles get,
A lot of food.
They blend into grass so green,
They blend so well,
I can't see a thing.
They walk so slow,
Not too fast.
That's because,
They have a shell on their back.
We have turtles,
BIG and small.
They're really neat,
Short or L---O---N---G.

In the woods

I found a bike
In the woods

And rode home
It had a flat tire
And I loved the cool rims
I tore it up And rode on the road

BUGS

They make girls scream.
Some bugs are heavy,
Some bugs make a big thud,
Some eat plants,
And some eat blood.

THE SEA SHORE
By: Conner H.


The sea shore is like a dusty desk
And the sea shells are little pink erasers
The blue water is like a split water bottle
And the boats are like boots in the classroom.


The future
By: Devon


I made a huver board.
I made a mood ring
I made a laser ring,
With a raser thing.
I made a future house,
With a robot blowes.
I have a huver shoow.
I have a jetpack.
I made a huver car
I made a huver board,
With a blubber soard.
The End


Snow
By: Dylan


The snow is like a big cotton ball that is fluffy and white.
When the snow falls and covers the ground,
It is a beautiful sight.
You can make igloos, snow forts, snowballs, and
snow cubes.
Sometimes the snow freezes and forms icesicles
That hang down from your house and look like tubes.
It is fun to go sledding, especially down a hill,
But after you get up, you get a big chill.

HOME
By: Elizabeth


Home reminds me of bed.
Bed reminds me of dreams.
Dreams remind me of fun.
Fun reminds me of games.
Games remind me of outside.
Outside reminds me of animals.
Animals remind me of pets.
Pets remind me of my cats.
My cats remind me of home.

Jordan
By: Jordan


Jordan likes computers.
He runs at recess.

Trains
By: Josh


The top looks like a straw
Whenever I here it coming
I here a whistle
I see a steaming
Frog hoping
Down the railroad
The smoke smell
Bursting
I feel a moving earthquak
Steaming towards me
I hear repeating sound of saics
And that is a train

Mountains
By: Katelyn


The top,
Like the sharp point of
A pencil.
The grass,
Is like a 3-dimensional
Sheet.
The climb to the top,
Is like climbing up the side of a
Building.
The sky,
Is like a sheet of painted glass
Hanging
From the top of the
World.
The beautiful flowers,
Are like diamonds and pearls
Growing
Out of the
Ground.
A mountain,
Is amazing.
A mountain,
Is beautiful.
A mountain,
Is an adventure
That no mind
Can understand.

Whistling
By: Lydia


I can
Jump, laugh,
Skip and play.
I can read
And write.
But when
I try to
Whistle I
Just don't
Do it
Quite right.
I shape
My lips
The proper
Way but
All that comes out
Is air.
It just is not
Fair.
My dad
Can whistle
My mom can too,
But I
Just can
Not do.
Mom, dad
Will I
Ever be
able to
whistle too?
I can
Not whistle
Boo! Hoo!

Coolish.

Stickers
By: Sable


Stickers stickers
Every where

Christmas Tree Lights
By: Paige


Christmas tree lights
Christmas tree lights
Are like the roses in
Moon light and
Sun lights

Blue pink and purple

Like pretty snow flakes
On the tree
I like Christmas
Tree lights as
Much as ice cream.
