Here is a fun poem from Jack Prelutsky. Enjoy!


A Pizza the Size of the Sun


I'm making a pizza the size of the sun,
a pizza that's sure to weigh more than a ton,
a pizza too massive to pick up and toss,
a pizza resplendent with oceans of sauce.

I'm topping my pizza with mountains of cheese,
with acres of peppers, pimentos, and peas,
with mushrooms, tomatoes, and sausage galore,
with every last olive they had at the store.

My pizza is sure to be one of a kind,
my pizza will leave other pizzas behind,
my pizza will be a delectable treat
that all who love pizza are welcome to eat.

The oven is hot, I believe it will take
a year and a half for my pizza to bake.
I hardly can wait till my pizza is done,
my wonderful pizza the size of the sun.

Mr. Peabody's Apples is a new must have for me. I discovered the Madonna written book in my Literature class Wednesday night. The book is a story about Mr. Peabody and how he deals with a young man on a baseball team that he coaches. The young boy assumes that Mr. Peabody is stealing and tells one person... the rumors spread like wild fire, leaving Mr. Peabody to deal with the clean up.

This is a great book to teach children the consequences of rumors and talking about things to others with out getting all of the details.

Mock Newsletter

For Class I had to create a mock newsletter that I would send out during the school year. There are some great things to read inside it. Hope you enjoy!
