My students learned how to write non rhyming poetry today. I asked them to write a poem about some type of city wildlife. Their imagery made me chuckle. Here's one of my favorites (completely uncorrected):
Squirrel
Today I saw
a baby squirrel.
The squirrels teeth
was fricken me out
its teeth were all black.
The squirrel's head
was shining like
silver.
Its nails were
sharp like a
porcupine's thorn.
good post Jackson
ReplyDeleteonce again your students exhibiting wisdom at a young age- trust me, i've encountered a few squirrels at school and they are anything but friendly :)
ReplyDeleteHa, that's wonderful! I am new here. What age do you teach? I'm guessing about fourth grade?
