My New Year’s Resolution By Emma

This 2012 my New Year’s Resolution will be to take more initiative. To remember my New Year’s Resolution, here is my strategy: if I see trash on the ground, I will not stand there, I will pick it up.

Another one of my New Year’s Resolutions will be to not argue with my parents about homework. To remember my New Year’s Resolution, here is my strategy: when I get home from school, I will do my homework right away with no whining.      

Thanksgiving

By Ek

Thank you,

For all my hands can hold-

Turkey Brown,

And cornucopia gold;

Yellow pineapple,

Both Cold and sweet,

Apples and melons,

So good to eat!

Thank you,

For all my eyes see-

Friends, bob,

And family,

Fields and parks,

I can see,

Can you see?

All the trees?

Thank you,

For all my ears can hear-

Leafs and wind,

Far and near,

Songs of little,

Stream, big sea,

Friends, cars,

Woodpecker,bee.
