So we have been doing a poetry unit in grade two. We read "Junie B Jones...Monster Under my Bed." So I asked them to write a poem about a Monster under THEIR Bed.
Audrey's is a rather sweet monster. It even smells like flowers! .... It's as cold as ice though...hmmm lol.
Arnold on the other hand, had a bit of a darker monster. He was even TWO ugly! ha ha
Now for the ACROSTIC NAME POEMS...They were supposed to describe themselves....or what they like...or what they like to do beside each letter of their name.
Talal's is not bad. At least he's confident with his circle of friends! The killer is Larry King Live! When I saw that, I was like...Talal, do you even know what that is?
He's like...yeah. It's on ALL the time at home. Ok. haha.
Audrey is one of my Korean twins. What is funny, is that I was like..What does USA born mean?
She's like, you know and she makes a big hump motion to her belly. "My mom, she had this on the plane ...then when she get to USA...out"
...and she motions to a baby coming...out. Ha Ha. So, yes, therefore. USA Born. I get it now :)
She had a hard time with Y. So did I, so I googled some Y words. Yap came up, I'm like, do you know what that means? It means talking alot. "Oh yes, I do that alot! My mom tells me!"
Mission Accomplished.
Arnold's Acrostic Poem.
This entire poem is self explainatory.
It kills me, every line!
Im like...why Old Trees? Do you like them?
"Yes"
Duh, Ms. Meyer of course, what else would it mean? lol
Guess that means he like dogs too...but definetly not Lions or the Sun! ha ha
In Social Studies we did a unit on inventions.
Audrey's a "Sleeping the Baby" machine. I mean, the Babby. My bad.
I love the label, 'song and shake.'
And of course, decoration. In case we don't notice, lol.
When they presented I asked them something about their machine that would involve problem solving. I said "What if your baby doesn't sleep for one hour? What will you do?"
She said...go Chicken and _______. I couldnt understand the last word, I was like. Get a chicken? Like bawk bawk, and I did a chicken thing with my arms. She was like no, go to Chicken. I was so confused for like 2 minutes. Then she finally said, you go to Chicken and get milk from fridge.....
Guesses anyone????
Of COURSE. Go to the KITCHEN to get a bottle from the fridge! She said the wheels on the bottom would roll to the "Chicken" ha ha ha I died laughing, it was adorable.
I think I have a sock problem.
At this school the kids have to take off their shoes to go on the carpet, that didn't happen in my old school.
But here, I take off my shoes with them and cross my legs on my rolly chair as I read them stories, just to be like them too.
At first, they were like...whoa! And all pointing to my feet. I was like....yeah, I can cross my legs...whats your point? lol. Nope. I had 2 different coloured socks on! Oops! I was low on clean laundry and they were mixed up! Then of course the next day my socks had a hole in one, and they notice right away. Today I wore 2 different socks again! I know its hard to see in this pic, but the one on the right has purple on the end, the other does not. No, I didnt notice in the morning, but my wardrobe peeps did. ha ha. Its an ongoing joke. Maybe at end of the year, I'll get socks as a present from the kids haha.
GRAB A TEA...SIT BACK, AND GET READY FOR POETRY READING. ROOM 204.
Press play on the 3 Videos...SORRY 2 are sideways! The camera's new!!! Next time!
***FUN FACT***
***I joined the gym! It's fun! Lots of different classes in the evenings, HipHop, Jazz, Yoga, Aerobics, Dumbells. I did one the other night...all in Korean clearly. Im good at counting down from 8 now! :)
***I FINALLY got the internet hooked up in home! The cable guy started to put an ethernet code on the modem. But I didnt know how to tell him I wanted wireless. So I picked up the laptop and started moving it all around, to show him wireless. Yeah, he may have thought I was nuts. Then I pointed to the cord and made an X with my hands. He nodded...Ah...he takes the cord out and throws it on the ground to show NO. Charades...is a beautiful thing. I'll be much better at Cranium after this! lol
...P.S. Random finale of Talal's hip hopping moves...
