Jayden and Lilly had a fantastic idea for sharing their poetry since we don't ever seem to have enough time during the school day for sharing our personal writing pieces. Since you all just left for the afternoon--and for Thanksgiving holidays--I told the girls I would post their first piece for them:
There is something about this day that makes me want to say
I am thankful for my toys and for my friends who are boys.
I am thankful for my friends who are nice to me,
and I am thankful for what has come to be.
I am thankful for many things that the many days have to bring.
Everyone should be thankful for everything they own,
even if it is less than one ice cream cone.
Everyone should be thankful when we get the things we want,
because some kids just don't.

Jayden and Lilly,
ReplyDeleteI can't tell you how happy it makes me as a teacher to see how enthusiastic you are about writing! You are both extremely talented, and your writer's voice shines in everything you write.
Thanks for sharing, and thanks for a great idea!
Love, Miss Cox
Mrs.cox,
ReplyDeleteme and Lilly had a great time writing these poems so we decided maybe we could do it every week, so we wanted to do a poetry club.Lilly and I love it that you let us do this.

The best thing I did was go to the Bass Pro Shop with my cousins that live in Halina.
