5B Classroom News: Week of April 6th

A note from Mrs. Burke:
April is National Poetry month so I challenged the students to write a poem. This was an optional assignment. I am overjoyed to announce that every student in 5B wrote a poem! I am so proud of them! Way to go 5B!!! Keep up the good work. I know this new way of learning is not easy, and I greatly appreciate the enthusiasm of the students as we navigate this new normal for the rest of the school year. Again, thank you to parents as well. I could not do this without your support.

I hope everyone has a very relaxing April break. Please get outside, away from the computers and devices, and enjoy nature!

Enjoy the beautiful poetry written by students in 5B!

OPPOSITES

I like opposite words

I think they are pretty cool

I like to say them at school or even at the pool

For now I have to go

But I wanted everyone to know

Opposite words are fun

Even when you are on the run

- By Aaron

Quarantine,

Usually I can go anywhere I want,

Anytime,

Right now, 

Anywhere is,

No where.

Today

I

Need to remember what I am 

Especially thankful for.

- By Ben
