A big blue book
Asked me if I liked the story
In my small room
At my bed time
So it can have an opinion.
Ally
A giraffe
Raised his long, skinny neck
In the grassy fields of the safari
In the hot, hot summer in the middle of the day
To eat some leaves.
Matthew
A book
Snapped at kids
In the classroom
At reading time
For self-protection.
Cole
A German Sheppard
Chased a criminal
Outside
In the summer
To get the criminal back to jail.
Eddie
A secret agent
Was on a mission
On an island
On Tuesday
Because, well, that was his job.
Patrick
My fuzzy, little, yellow ducks
Fell quietly asleep
In the warm comfy corner
At sizzling sunset
Because they were tired.
Jordan
A tree with green leaves
Lost a lot of leaves
Right next to my house
Today
Because the wind blew them out.
Efrain
The black TV
Watched us learn
In our classroom
In the morning
To show it on TV.
Chris
A pillow
Hit me in the face
At noon
In the school
Because it's a huge, fat, meany!
Izabelle
The marvelous cheetah cat
Ran fast to catch food
In the wild
At mid-day
To live.
Brian
The red body pillow
Talked to the second grade boy
Right near the little boy's seat
After lunch
Because he was so lonely.
Evan
My big, wacky brown lab dog
Wrecked the yard
At my house in the back
When my mom called me for lunch (Yummm sandwich!)
I don't know why.
John
A bulky pumpkin
Said, "Hey, how you doing?" to a farmer
In a pumpkin patch
In the morning
So he can finally talk for the first time.
Justin
My grandma's long haired Chihuahua
Ran through the woods chasing a butterfly
At my house
In the morning after breakfast
Because she was bored.
Jada
My fun puppy Maxie
chased a squirrel up a tree
in my yard
after lunch
to play catch.
Ally
The little puppy
Was licking my hand
In my back yard
After I got my ice cream cone
To taste the chocolate ice cream cone.
Caterina
The big, fluffy pillow
Laying on the table
In the living room
After everybody went to bed
So it doesn't get squished.
Gianni
My Nana's black cat
Licks me
In the basement
After lunch
To show me love.
Jenna
Polar bear
Walking with its big, fat belly
In the Arctic snow
After sleeping for one hour
Because he woke up when it was the end of hibernation.
Dasha
The huge, long squid
Rocketed in the water
In the Atlantic Ocean
At daylight
So he could catch a crab for dinner.

The Dancing Easter Rabbit
I'm a dancing rabbit
Dancing through the woods. Hooray for me!
I am the luckiest boy
Yee-ha, Hooray!
Hooray!
It is fun hopping
Sure is fun, why not hop all day?
Time to hop home, bye!
Izabelle
My Birthday
April fourth was my birthday party.
My birthday party was the best
birthday party ever!
I went skating with
my best Mommy
ever. I love
her!
Jada
I have fun on my birthday
I get money
I have key lime pie
I get to go to the movies
I can do anything I
want
Happy Birthday to me!
Cole
When I take a walk in the garden
I love to look around,
to see if I can find anything.
Sometimes I read in the garden.
Sometimes I
sit on the bench and draw
in the moonlight.
Gianni
Vegetables
Planting vegetables is good for you
Vegetables are healthy
They taste good to eat.
I like corn.
Do you
like them?
I like vegetables!
Jordan
Ice Skating
Cold, chilly, windy snow
Sow is all around!
I see a lot of people skating.
Now the fish are freezing.
People are falling.
I like to skate a lot.
By the way, try not to break the ice!
Evan
First day of School
Nervous kids on the bus.
Scared
Sad kids pull up at the school.
Down
the metal bus steps.
Trot
down the halls, up the stairs to your class.
Ally
Tomatoes
Time to grow veggies
Buy the seeds and plant them
Water them, put them near the sun
Grow
Harvest them at the end of the season
Tomatoes are delicious
You can also plant other kids of plants
Chris
Bengal Tiger
The Bengal tiger
walked through the woods wagging his striped tail.
He has black and white stripes.
His claws are sharpened.
His hair is so very soft.
Get away or he'll bite!
Roar!
John

What To Do If You Are A Skateboard
Torn up grip tape gets chipped
Stepped on and chipped board
Rolls on the ground
Scratched metal skateboard trucks
Rolls faster with bearings
Chris
What To Do If You Are A Tree
Grow to be big and strong
Make fruit
Drink water
Die because of pollution
Have branches put in a bonfire
Eddie
What To Do If You Are A Dog
Walk when I'm awake
Eat bone-shaped dog food
Wag my tail when I want a treat
Bark all day long
Jump through hoops for training
Jada
What To Do If You Are A Model
Getting dressed in the room
Getting make-up on
Being in fashion shows
Walking down the aisle
Having people take pictures of you
Being on magazines
Dasha
What To Do If You Are King Kong
Smash puny people
Eat whatever you want
Destroy a jumbo jet
Go nuts
Get to be the biggest ape in the world
Justin
What To Do If You Are A Eraser
Erase other peoples' mistakes
Get put away when people are done with them
Move your paper when you use it
Stuck on top of a pencil
Feels squishy
Easy to break
Gianni
What To Do If You Are A Cat
Chew on yarn everyday
Sleep on someone's bed all night
Eat a lot of food
Climb on the blind shades
Get chased by the dog
Ally
What To Do If You Are An Alien
Hide from astronauts
Abduct kids and take out there brains
Fly your UFO around space
Take over the world
Cole
What To Do If You Are A Burglar
Steel stuff
Rob banks
Brake windows
Be crazy!
Patrick
What To Do If You Are Year Old Broccoli
Stink like old gym socks
Hide from trash cans or else you will be thrown away
Hide from dogs or else you will be eaten
Hide from hands or else you will be dog soufflé
Try to avoid feet or else you will be squished

The big crackling red, orange, and yellow fire
The horrible hot dangerous fire
Spreading each minute at its own pace
Taking control of the whole forest
Trees are turning into flames in seconds
By Matthew
One scary tiger laying by a big, oak tree in the jungle
One fierce tiger that is hungry
A fierce tiger resting in the fresh green, jungle grass.
Ally
Three starving giraffes looking for food in the scary jungle
Their skin color is tan and white plaid
Brown shiny, pretty eyes
With pointy, plaid ears
Jordan
A volcano exploding
Dark red lava spewing
Spitting out rocks from the top
Making SSSSSS sounds when they are melting
Making lots of gray ash clouds
Melted rock flows down like a puddle.
Justin
The mini chipmunk is hibernating
It's in a steamy bed
The chipmunk is curled in a ball sleeping
It's sleeping in yellow and brown hay
It's cute and fuzzy!
Izabelle
The babies are drinking mama wolf's milk
The mama wolf is tired
Mama wolf just had four baby wolves
One of the babies are flipped over
One of the babies are on top of another one
Jada
A dark black and white dog laying in the green spring grass
Chewing on a shoe lace that's black and white
While he chews the white part
Dasha
Killer whales are breathing
Four killer whales are swimming in a pod
Astronomical whales swimming in the deep blue sea
Their fins are above the water
They are making waves in the ocean
Chris
Fish swimming in the sea
Yellow, blue and maybe green fish
Fish eating other fish
Hundreds of fish. thousands of fish in the colorful reef
Fish hiding from sharks
Eddie
The little kitten is laying on her stomach right next to her mom
With her paws in front of her
She is glad to be with her mom
She looks nervous and looks like she wants to run away
Caterina
Three hungry wolves are looking for prey
The three wolves are in the middle of the snowy, white tundra
They are gray wolves
A group of wolves is called a pack
Evan
An eagle looks at something far away
Sitting as still as a rock
Eagles kill with their sharp beaks
Eagles fly over ocean water
Swimming near the surface
Jenna
Two lizards trying to get out of their shell
One looks like it is stuck in the shell
One got out really quickly
They came out green, but they were born in the forest
Efrain
Jockeys racing everyday
Trying to win just for a trophy
Zooming past each other to come in first
With hundreds of people watching to see who comes in first this year
Brian
A tiny little cafe all by itself
In a valley of daisies
Waiting for his mother to find him
It's getting dark, the baby can't find his mother
Gianni
