Sounds On Earth poem by Megan and Emma



Sounds On Earth


Birds are chirping,

Rain is falling,

Wind is blowing,

Softly calling,

Flowers are slowly

Growing,

Grass is gracefully swaying,

Bees are working,

With great speed,

We are planting,

Seed by seed.

WHAT THE WEATHER IS LIKE

Today Monday June 8 it is going to rain. I am not sure its right because sometimes the weather network is wrong. Right now it is sunny but a little cool. I hope it will be sunny all day because if it rains we have to stay in side. But if it is sunny we get to play outside. My school is fun!!!

Mr. Martian Gets Lost

Mr. Martian was a small but old Martian. He had only three eyes. He also had six legs and he had a unibrow. One day, he saw a meteor coming close to his planet. He put on his jet pack and flew to stop the meteor. He stopped it. Then his jet pack ran out and he fell to Earth. When he crash landed, he saw a sign that said that Robert Thirsk had arrived safely at the ISS. The next lift off, Julie Payette would be travelling to the ISS.

Next, Mr. Martian walked over two transports and three taxis. He walked inside a restaurant, that he thought said “Disco Party”, and since he likes dancing, he went inside and started to dance. He saw a shiny plate gleaming in the light. He walked outside and saw a big sign that said “Lift Off in 5 seconds”. So, he ran and jumped on the space capsule in order to catch a ride home.

Different Sounds

Birds are singing
People are talking
Bees are buzzing all around
Butterflies are flying
Draganflies are doing the same thing
Frogs are making the sounds "ribbet, ribbet"
And there are much more sounds in this world
