We have been reading a poem, in class, called That was Summer, by Marci Ridlon. Ben was inspired to write his own version and I'm sure you will be VERY impressed.
Have you ever smelled summer?
Or felt it?
When it's hot, and cool breezes blow
across your face and
the smell of grass.
Do you remember the time it was so hot
you asked your Dad to take you to the river?
All cold flowing, but nice,
Even the dirty parts of the river.
The feeling of the warm grass and plants
and those weird sticky chunks of mud
that are filled with water.
The times when you were about to leave, you wanted to stay,
and play in the water,
swimming under the water,
having so much fun
But the walk down the track
was something that didn't really make sense.
Driving down the track
then back on to the road
and home.
Now that's what I like about summer.
Welcome to Room 15's Blog. I hope you enjoy seeing samples of our work and reading reports on the exciting happenings in our class and around the school. I will also include reminders of upcoming events, snippets from the Weekly News that is glued into homework books every Monday, and anything else that may be of interest.
