Yankee Doodle went to France,
With his golden VISA.
But he could not afford to buy
Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa.

The Marvelous Homework and Housework Machine.

The Marvelous Homework and Housework Machine.
By Kenn Nesbitt.

Attention all students! Attention all kids! 
Hold onto your horses! Hold onto your lids!
We have just exactly the thing that you need
whenever you’ve way too much homework to read.
The Marvelous Homework and Housework Machine
will always make sure that your bedroom is clean.
It loves to write book reports ten pages long,
then put all your toys away where they belong.
This wonderful gadget will do all your math,
then mop up your messes and go take your bath.
The Marvelous Homework and Housework Machine
is truly like no other gizmo you’ve seen.
It hangs up your clothes on their hangers and hooks,
then reads all your boring geography books.
It brings you a pillow to give you a rest,
then brushes your teeth and prepares for your test.
This thing is amazing—I’m sure you’ll agree.
It feeds you dessert while you’re watching TV.
There’s only one thing this device will not do:
It won’t eat your Brussels sprouts—they’re, like, PU!

How to write and Respect poem.

When you treat people and things in a kind, considerate, and polite way, you are being respectful. Respect is very important at home, at school, and everywhere you go. When you show respect, you show that you care for other people’s feelings or that you care for belongings, buildings, streets, and nature.
To show how much respect you have for people and things, try writing a fun respect poem. The easiest way to do this is to make simple list of what it means to be respectful at school.
How to write and Respect Poem.
First start by making a quick list of how you can show respect at school. List poems seem to work best when they are written with a parallel structure; that is, when each line begins the same way and follows the same pattern. Here’s an example of what you can use to get started:
    I show respect for the bus driver by… 
    I show respect for my teacher by… 
    I show respect for the cafeteria monitor by… 
    I show respect for my fellow students by… 
    I show respect for the janitor by… 
    and so on.
Next, take the best lines and put them together in a poem. Remember to keep the parallel structure by following the same sentence pattern.
Here’s a sample poem that goes beyond showing respect at school:
    How I Show Respect
    I show respect for my parents by thanking them when they help me. 
    I show respect for my teachers by not yakking with my friends when they are teaching. 
    I show respect for my friends by not making fun of them. 
    I show respect for myself by doing the best job I can at school.
If you feel really creative, you can always play Aretha Franklin’s great song, "Respect," and then see if you can rewrite it with school-related lyrics.
But I’ll save that idea for another lesson.

Bubble Bath

Bubble Bath
emptied my bubble bath into the tub,
Determined to get myself thoroughly scrubbed.
The bottle had said "ONLY ONE CAP OR TWO",
So I poured in the lot to see what it would do!

That still didn't seem quite enough to get clean,
So I followed it up with another fifteen.
Then three bars of soap and a dozen shampoo,
And two broken bath bombs to finish my brew!

I'll cut to the chase, this did not turn out well,
As the burbling, foaming bath bubbles did swell!
It wasn't all bad, I was clean and smelt sweet,
But outside my soap suds had buried the street!

The Number thief 5x.

I was in my own bedroom,
Or was it the den?
I was writing with crayons,
crayons in a box
Or was it a pen?
What I remember?
Almost nothing at all!
My parents were out,
They’d gone to the mall,
I was home all-alone,
A drink in my cup,
sippy cup
Hoping the thief,
Wouldn’t show up!
Number thief was,
That small little man,
Who would steal all my numbers,
I wasn’t his fan!
He'd come to my house,
Like 10 times a year,
For the last 5 years,
We'd been living right there... 
How many times had the number thief come to my house in all?

(type your answer in the box!)

 

Giant Green Giraffe!!

A giant, goofy, 
Green giraffe,
Had a ten-foot neck,
Giant Green Giraffe!!

Don't laugh!!!
Liked to eat, chocolate chips,
Melt them on his purple lips...
Once he saw a chocolate pie, 

Floating high up,
In the sky...
20-feet above the ground,
Floating as it made no sound!!!! 
Truly, really wanna' chew,
Chocolate pie,
With chocolate goo!!!
I can't reach,
No can do,
Need that pie,
Thought it through...
Took all day,
Thought some more,
It was solved,
Brain was sore! 
10-foot neck,
Stretched 10 feet!!!!!!!!!!
This was not an easy feat!
10 + 10,
Gave him 20,
Hurt his neck,
Wasn't funny...
But that pie,
Oh-so-sweet,
Chocolate pie,
He got to eat...

My Elementary poem.

Elementary
By Kenn Nesbitt

"Elementary."
That means "easy."
I don't find it
quite so breezy.

Learn addition.
Then subtraction.
Multiply.
Divide a fraction.
Spelling. Science.
Reading. Writing.
Social studies.
Speech reciting.
Testing. Testing.
Still more Testing.
Not much recess.
Not much resting.

I complained but
no one listened.
Maybe elementary
isn't.

My 10 Fast Fingers!

On 10 Fast Fingers, I can get 51 words per minute.

The Teacher Jumped out of the Windows

The Teachers Jumped out of the Windows.
By Kenn Nesbitt

(sing to the tune of “My Bonnie”) 
The teachers jumped out of the windows.
The principal ran for the door.
The nurse and librarian bolted.
They’re not coming back anymore.
The counselor, hollering madly,
escaped out the door of the gym.
The coach and custodian shouted
and ran out the door after him.
Chorus
Oh my! Goodbye!
They’re not coming back anymore, no more.
How fun! They’ve run!
They’re not coming back anymore.
The lunch ladies threw up their ladles,
then fled from the kitchen in haste,
and all of the students looked puzzled
as staff members scurried and raced.
We’d never seen anything like it.
But still, it was pretty darned cool
to see all the staff so excited
to leave on the last day of school.
Chorus

Race the teacher at XtraMath.

Today during maths I did two tasks this was one of them 
this task is called race the teacher at XtraMath.

Advice from Dracula

Advice from Dracula
By Kenn Nesbitt

Don’t ever dine with Frankenstein;
he feasts on flaming turpentine.
He chomps and chews on soles of shoes
and quaffs down quarts of oily ooze.
At suppertime he’ll slurp some slime.
He’s known to gnaw on gristly grime.
His meals of mud and crispy crud
will curl your hair and chill your blood.
His poison, pungent, putrid snacks
may cause you seizures and attacks.
Your hair may turn completely white.
You may pass out or scream in fright.
Your skin will crawl.
Your throat will burn.
Your eyes will bulge.
Your guts will churn.
Your teeth will clench.
Your knees will shake.
Your hands will sweat.
Your brain will bake.
You’ll cringe and cry.
You’ll moan and whine.
You’ll feel a chill
run down your spine.
You’ll lose your lunch.
You’ll lose your head.
So come...
and dine with me instead.
