Let us take our baskets early To the meadows green, While the wild-flowers still are pearly With the dewdrops' sheen. Fill them full of blossoms rosy, Violets and gay Cowslips, every pretty posy Welcoming the May. Then our lovely loads we'll carry Down the village street, On each door, with laughter merry, Hang a basket sweet.
Hey-a-day-day! It is spring now, Lazy folks, awake! See the pretty things we bring now For the May-day's sake!
I'm practical- that's what I am! And I know why I like the month of May. I like it lots, for that is the month We celebrate our last school day. Let the others have all the fits and spells About the beauties of the seasons, But I like May 'cause school is out- And I'm not ashamed to tell my reason!
When school is closing soon, my heart gets excited! But I'll miss my friends and teacher so my feelings are divided. I think of all I've learned, like math, writing, and reading. I'm proud of my accomplishments and how I've been succeeding! So, here's to summer months of fun and to the next year, too! I'll always remember this school year and how much I grew!
I’m a little bit excited. I’m a little bit sad. I’m a little bit nervous. I’m a little bit glad. I’m a little bit older. It’s the end of the year. I’ll miss this class. I’m glad I was here.

Title- The Little Turtle
There was a little turtle.
He lived in a box.
He swam in a puddle.
He climbed on the rocks.
He snapped at a mosquito.
He snapped at a flea.
He snapped at a minnow.
And he snapped at me.
He caught the mosquito.
He caught the flea.
He caught the minnow.
But he didn’t catch me.

Let us take our baskets early
To the meadows green,
While the wild-flowers still are pearly
With the dewdrops' sheen.
Fill them full of blossoms rosy,
Violets and gay
Cowslips, every pretty posy
Welcoming the May.
Then our lovely loads we'll carry
Down the village street,
On each door, with laughter merry,
Hang a basket sweet.
Hey-a-day-day! It is spring now,
Lazy folks, awake!
See the pretty things we bring now
For the May-day's sake!

I'm practical- that's what I am!
And I know why I like the month of May.
I like it lots, for that is the month
We celebrate our last school day.
Let the others have all the fits and spells
About the beauties of the seasons,
But I like May 'cause school is out-
And I'm not ashamed to tell my reason!

M-A-Y spells May
M-A-Y spells May
The 5th month of the year
M-A-Y spells May.
Kids go out and play
All through the month of May
31 days of sunny fun
And then the month is done!
When School Is Closing Soon
ReplyDeleteBy Janiel Wagstaff
When school is closing soon,
my heart gets excited!
But I'll miss my friends and teacher
so my feelings are divided.
I think of all I've learned,
like math, writing, and reading.
I'm proud of my accomplishments
and how I've been succeeding!
So, here's to summer months of fun
and to the next year, too!
I'll always remember this school year
and how much I grew!

ReplyDeletePour on lotion,
Rub it in.
Perfect for
My summer skin.
On my bike
Or in the pool,
A sip of water
Keeps me cool.
Shades are on,
Flip-flops, too.
In summer there’s
So much to do!
