SEPTEMBER WRITING LESSONS - FIRST GRADE
SEPTEMBER WRITING LESSONS - SECOND GRADE
Each day I'll do my best
And I won't do any less.
My work will always please me
And I won't accept a mess.
I'll color very carefully
My writing will be neat.
And I will not be happy
Til' my papers are complete.
I'll always do my homework
And try my best on every test.
I won't forget my promise
To do my very best!
Keep a poem in your pocket
and a picture in your head
and you'll never feel lonely at night when you're in bed.
The little poem will sing to you
the little picture bring to you
a dozen dreams to dance to you
at night when you're in bed.
So--
Keep a picture in your pocket
and a poem in your head
and you'll never be lonely at night when you're in bed.
We've joined together as classmates
as the new year begins...
A year full of learning
while we become friends.
We'll share and be kind
as we work and play.
And our friendship will grow
with each passing day.
