Moon and Sun

Moony night
Sunny Day
Need Both
Need the moon for the night
Need the sun or always be in the dark

Crystals

Once I found a crystal
It was white as snow
It reminded me of last season
Where winter shown clearly
Where I found an ice chunk
It was white as snow
Like the crystal I found
The memory I will never forget

(8)

Fall

It's cold and chill
And Mother's are saying children
Put your jackets on
It's not summer can't
You see there's snow on the ground!

(1)

Seasons

Seasons are cold and warm
Nice and cool also
I love everyone

(10)

The Sun

Kids looking up at the sun
Smiling big kids screaming
No kids here
Only fine
And having fun and doing their best.

(14)

Summer

Summer is for flowers
No School "Boo Hoo"
18 more days and I am feeling blue
I can't leave my teacher
He is so green and handsome too
But his shoes really stink, pee you.

Colors

Red Yellow Green Blue
Some people are red
Some people are yellow
And some are green
And those green people
Have a lot of friends
Because they are nice sweet
And they listen

(14)

Nice Day

Then sun is shining
No wind at all.
Playing no bullying at all.
Everyone is having fun today,
What a nice day today.

(20)

Stinky Shoes

Stinky shoes oh stinky shoes
Do not take off your stinky shoes.
I heard your dog faints every hour,
I hope your dog does not die from your power.

Changing Weather

The rain is pouring
Kids are sad
Tears are dripping down their heads
the sun is now peaking through
The kids are happy no more
TV OUT OUT
The mothers say
Now I see bright faces outside

(14)

Ice Cream!

This is you and this is me.
Ice Cream is sweet and so are you!
I wonder how ice cream tastes.
So show me!

Your Time is Going Bye Bye

Since you were a baby you've been growing oh so fast
The clock is striking 6 o'clock.
Your time is going bye bye so really really fast!
Tick tock tick tock wow the time is going by.
So watch how you're spending your time and you will be just fine.

1 Tree 3 Trees 5 Trees Everywhere

1 Tree= Many tress
Trees and sprouts everywhere
I don't even care if my house is one,
So think lucky that you can breathe
SO thank all your trees around you neighborhood
Houses!

(12)

Balloons are fun, colory, puffy and neat but not when they pop
You are even more neat.

LeNeal

We appreciate people
At the things that they do,
But not like LeNeal
No, he's like brand new.

LeNeal has been searching
Home to home for a time
But he has 50% luck
He's got a lot of mountains to climb

Yet LeNeal is not with us
He comes from the heart
He has left, I know it
But of course he takes part

Sleepy

Last night I did not sleep right
Last night I might be walking up and down the hall

(21)

Haunted Night

As you walk through the streets
You hear a someone or something calling
"Avery come herrreeeeeee!"
You go in the direction
That you heard the words
Then you entered a house to see
A monster sprinting in your direction
Then the door looks...

Summer

The sun is shinning bigger than ever
Kids are smiling and kids are sad
With no friends now
I see kids making friends with them now
I think that the day ends.

(14)

May is for flowers and towers too.
I can only do it without you.
How thou does the cow?
Can you speak to me now?
Thank you brown cow.

Why do people say have a good day?
I don't get this
Is what I say have a bad day?

(6)

Dark light or ever midnight
The clock goes around and around
1 or 2 I'm not blue
or like glue
I'm just a human and that is all I am
I'm not a snoozmen a human
Well that's all the time I have
no more
It's all done

Tampa Bay, FL

Tampa Bay is a large natural harbor and estuary along the Gulf of Mexico on the west central coast of Florida, comprising Old Tampa Bay, Hillsborough Bay, McKay Bay, and New Tampa Bay.

Tampa Bay is Florida's largest open-water estuary, extending over 1031 square km.[1] and forming coastlines of Hillsborough, Manatee and Pinellas counties. The freshwater sources of the Bay are distributed among over a hundred small tributaries, rather than a single river.

Beginning the reversal of decades of unrestricted pollution, the bay was designated an estuary of national significance by the United States Environmental Protection Agency, for its fringe of mangrove and its prolific mud flats: more than 200 species of fish are to be found in Tampa Bay and 25 species of birds make it their year-round home. The warm water outfalls of power plants bordering the bay draw one out of every six endangered manatees to spend the winter. Equally significant though less immediately visible is the role of the Bay's waters as nurseries for shrimp and crabs, as well as less commercial invertebrates.

Two National Wildlife Refuges are located in Tampa Bay: Pinellas National Wildlife Refuge and the refuge on Egmont Key. Most of the smaller islands in the Bay are off-limits to the public, due to their fragile ecology and their use as nesting sites for brown pelicans, herons, egrets, Roseate spoonbills, cormorants and others. The Tampa Bay Estuary Program keeps watch over the Bay's health.

Miami, FL

We met Mandarin Shmi! She was great! What a great wrap up! It was the perfect review! We talked about sports teams, transportation, economy, the Civil War, endangered animals, natural disasters, natural harbors, the maritime effect, city nicknames and so much more! Awesome!! The oranges were great!!!

Miami is a major city in southeastern Florida, in the United States. It is the county seat of Miami-Dade County. Miami is a global city with an estimated population of 404,048. It is the largest city within the South Florida metropolitan area, which is the largest metropolitan area in the Southeastern United States with 5.5 million people. Miami and its surrounding cities make up the fifth largest urban area in the United States. As of 2005, the United Nations estimates that the Miami Urban Agglomeration is the fourth largest in the United States, and the 44th largest in the world.

Miami’s importance as an international financial and cultural center has elevated Miami to the status of world city. Because of Miami’s cultural and linguistic ties to North, South, and Central America, as well as the Caribbean, Miami is many times referred to as “The Gateway of the Americas”. Florida’s large Spanish-speaking population and strong economic ties to Latin America also make Miami and the surrounding region an important financial center of the Hispanic world.

Miami is also home to one of the largest, most influential ports in the United States, the Port of Miami. The port is often called the “Cruise Capital of the World” and the “Cargo Gateway of the Americas”. It has retained its status as the number one cruise/passenger port in the world for well over a decade accommodating the largest cruise ships and the major cruise lines.

Mr E and I went to Disney world. Mr. E. ate too much candy and got a stomach ache. I patted him on the back and he threw up. He went to the hospital. He was there for one hour. Then he felt better and he came back.

Orlando, FL

Ashley Disney, "Cinderella,"showed us around Orlando. It was great! There is so much to do we could never do it all. We got to smell the beach and see the shells from the beach. She said that the Gulf of Mexico beaches were better than the Atlantic Beaches. We tasted freshly squeezed OJ, which was great! We also went to the Kennedy Space Center!
