Thanks to Robyn for hosting Poetry Friday.
I am a shifty snake
I am as fast as a cheetah
I hiss, slither and bite
I live in a spooky habitat
My favorite food is frozen rats

I am a little fluffy hamster
I’m as fluffy as a cloud
I’m as fast as a cat
I’m like a little rat
My puffy nest is fluffiest

Cat
I am a cute cat
I am as sneaky as a fox
I sneak searching for mice
I stalk, run and pounce!
I am a Siamese cat

Happy Friday.

Thank you for sharing your students’ poetry, but thanks also for everything you’ve done to make these poems happen. Lucky kids to have you!
Thanks Mary Lee. It’s always fun.
I can imagine Hayden smiling while writing that final line!
These made me smile – I love looking at the world through a third grader’s eyes!
These are wonderful – congrats to these terrific young writers and hats off to their poetry coach! ;0) Like Buffy, I was struck by that alliterative and surprising (& great!) last line in Hayden’s poem.
To see the world again as a third grader does. Beautiful. 🙂
Writing in the library–what a novel (and wonderful) concept! Thanks for making this work happen for kids, Jone.
