In April, my students and I began working on our poetry chapbooks. For one of the poems, we wrote a list poem. List poems have always been fun, for they can rhyme or not, and they can pretty much be about anything.
Things:
to do waiting for a bus
kids say to their parents
you should have done
wish you would have done
that make you feel smart, special, tall…
you find in a grocery store, in your brother’s bedroom…
you hear on a playground
You get the idea, so each year, I enjoy doing the chapbooks along with my kiddos…so here is my playlist of the week….
A Teacher’s List: Things A Teacher Will Say in the Classroom
- Good morning class,
- How is you day?
- If you don’t work,
- A price you’ll pay.
- Do not talk,
- Or even sneeze.
- No, you may not,
- Do as you please!
- Do your work,
- And write your name.
- No, this is not,
- Some kind of game.
- Being good is a must,
- Or another student
- Will bite the dust!

Nice to make new blogger friends! Many of my ancestors went by Bryant, I used to get mad in school when the teacher put a T on my Bryan. LOL

This is nice! Who knows maybe will discover that you are supposed to have that T, or maybe I am not supposed to have one. We may even be cousins! lol
