"Calling All Poets!": Time for Kids, January 22, 2010


Read through this issue of Time for Kids. Definitely read "Earthquake Rocks Haiti" on p. 2 since we just talked about that yesterday.

Then, read "Calling All Poets!" on p. 2-3. I think you are all so funny and creative; this is perfect for you! Write a funny, rhyming poem on the blog tonight. Maybe later you can revise and publish your poem so we can submit it to the contest!

  1. Theres a monster in my chair
    It looks like a big hairy bear
    I didn't even care
    until...chomp, chomp, snap,
    he ate my rollerscates and cap
    while I took a nap

  4. You're going to the store
    to get some more
    of my favorite stuff.
    If I don't get it you're in a tuff
    I know the road is ruff
    but you're tuff enough.

  7. There's a mouse
    in my house
    there's a bat
    in my hat
    and there's a kangaroo
    in my shoe
    and I don't know

    but they're all following you
    to Timbuctu.

  12. I went to school
    and I ran into a pool
    my car went far
    down the street
    then I got out and walked with my feet
    I was almost there
    but then my hair
    got stuck on a tree
    and I fell on my knees
    then I got to school
    and lucky me there was no pool.

    likes to say
    i love my hair i love my hair
    but he lost it to a chair
    the chair was very proud
    but Damian Ray could yell very loud
    the chair ran away
    but all that he could say was ninkompoop
    by that time the chair was covered in goop
    and the hair was tangled in a loop
    the story does not finish here
    or else it would go on for a year
    but would you like to here the rest
    it might not be the best
    but ok here i go
    Damian Ray never got his hair back
    and so he got the sack
    his boss was very mad
    but he was very sad
    gotta fly
    so bye
