More Poems

By
In Writers' Workshop we ended the year with poetry. We studied different kinds of poetry and made all kinds of poems. Some of us wanted to share our work.

White
 White is the flowers being reborn after snowfall
it gently soars up as a gull would.
It tastes bland and lonely
slowly disintegrating at touch.
White cascades through the mountains
creating paths for lost souls in a hidden terrain.

I HAVE EATEN THE PANCAKES
I have eaten the pancakes that were sizzling on the pan
Forgive me, but when you went to the bathroom
They just looked so good with the melting chocolate chips
And the crusty outside

By Charlie



 Red
Red is the sunset
Red is the stars
Red is in jupiter
Red is in mars
Red is a very beautiful thing
Red is to move to dance to sing
Red is to shove
Red is to care
Red is the color of some people’s hair
Red is the little girl in the forest
Red is Goldilocks eating some porridge
Red that one thing that one person said
Red is to love
Red is red

By Becca



Careful in the forest
When I was young
I liked to walk in the forest and sometimes run
But one day
On the 18th of May
I will never forget
When I felt a threat
The trees glared at me
And there was no sound in the forest not even a bee
I stopped dead in my track
And felt the trees stare at my back
I slowly turned
And my breath did not return
For then I ran
And did not return to that land
And from that day
On the 18th of May
I was always careful in the forest.

Blue

By Abie
Blue is a berry, winter and fish.
It tastes sweet and juicy like the ripe blueberries hanging from the tree.
Blue smells damp like a wet fall morning.
It is sadness.
Blue is winter, it's fast, wet, and rainy.


Blue
Blue is the waves crashing and swaying
Blue is the eyes of a little girl praying
Blue is the sky filled with clouds
Blue is the color of the coats in crowds
Blue is some color on a shoe
Blue is the color of a witches brew
Blue is the color of a young bird's feathers
Blue is the changing of the weathers.
Blue is the frost on an icicle
Blue is a painted bicycle
Blue is my vanes running through me
Blue is the color of bravery

Blue us one of my favorite colors, how about you?

Mystery Trip - 2025

By
Every year 4-5 takes a mystery trip. We don't know where we are going and we find out when we get there. Sometimes we go to the beach or a lake. The teachers kick off the conversation with absurd ideas. Sometimes it is an exotic place or a spot that doesn't even exist. This year they told us we were going to a bean factory, (which was knocked down) a farm that had a rare and elusive invisible sheep called cloud sheep, and that we would be working for the Morton Salt Company picking salt off the salt hay on the marsh. The teachers told us that after we help with the beans and salt we would get credit on the labels of the containers and we would get to bring home the wool of the cloud sheep. Last year's kick off was even more absurd. They told us we were going to a donut farm to plant donut seeds which were cheerios, go to have tea with the late Queen in England, go on a treasure hunt, and visit the cheese museum. After telling us where we were going the teachers gave us a pa...

Self Portraits

By
A few weeks ago, we started creating self portraits. We learned about Romero Britto and his style , which includes patterns, bold lines, bright colors and simple designs. We all added food into our Romero Britto-inspired self-portraits because we are telling people about ourselves and our favorite foods. We are doing a study called Local Foods and we are adding foods, sometimes in repetitive patterns, to our portraits. We hung the portraits in our classroom and now we can see the similarities and differences in our class. By showing our favorite foods others can relate and connect to us. We assembled the foods into bright patterns and divided the sections with thick black lines like Romero Britto. We also hid other things we like into our self portraits. We put as much detail as we could into the pieces to show our identities. After we finished them, we mounted them on black paper and hung them on the wall. We hope you like them.  This is our first blog post of the year and we work...

Grandparents And Friends

By
We are Kat and Suzy! We are going to be bringing you this information about Grandparents and Friends Day!!!!! On May 2, 2025 at 8:47 our Grand Friends came to Waynflete. We go to share what we are doing in school like RQs, which stands for research quest. That is a research project where we read, take notes, and write an essay. But that's not our focus of this blog so we will get back to Grandparents and Friends Day. We did some writing together, shared some math, and gave tours of our classroom. Our grandparents and friends were happy to see us and they said school was different for us than it was for them. We also had Pachanga with our grand friends. We all sang songs together like when people from Nancy's home station went up and showed everyone the motions to peace like a river in sign language! And that's a wrap! by Kat and Suzy
