A Poem by Mrs. Vera
June 2011
“This is the end, there ain’t no more,”
I borrowed those words, but they’re true to the core
Another year of school is done,
Let’s look back and review the fun!
Madison played Dr. Greg in our play,
Kendall built an Egyptian Game,
Unique had fun building a mummy,
Kyle played basketball when it was sunny
Myles swept up and cleaned the floor,
Jermaine always liked to hold the door
Zane showed off his drawing skills,
Tyler excelled at all math drills
Elizabeth tapped upon the stage,
Iris read tons as she turned the page
Jordyn’s writing was always neat,
Aubrielle knew when to take a seat
Mackenzie helped with the bulletin boards,
Kinnard was successful at the Monarch Awards
De’Jhaye had fun on the governor’s trip,
Zyale built things from pens and clips
An Egyptian pyramid, Marcus did build
When Tasia’s dad came for Career Day, the room was filled
Maya showed off her cheerleading moves,
At the Jacob Lattimore concert, Rayana grooved
Jessica learned plenty at the Freedom Center,
Into the museum, Zoe and her mom did enter
They learned about slavery and some secret codes
They studied the Underground Railroad
Micaela reached her goal of keeping her homework neat,
In science, Lexie showed the difference between sour and sweet
Takiyah helped with breakfast clean up,
Tossing bags, getting rid of juice cups
Mindless Behavior rocked our school,
Amber got a poster, which was really cool
Kayla engaged us with her fiction story,
When the rain came down, we read books that were gory
We listened to Michael Jackson and rocked to the beat,
We ate cold popsicles to beat the heat
When all is over, said, and done
We had an adventurous 5th grade run
As you move on, to a new 6th grade era,
Remember who will always love you, your 5th grade teacher, Mrs. Vera!
