This is a student's poem about his favorite subject in school, written during a creative writing unit.
Tuesdays and Thursdays feel like holidays
Mr. LaRock is waiting for us
Time to do stations
We start with push ups and curls ups
Muscles are warming like buns in the oven
Running the mile, hearts pounding inside
I'm a monkey, climbing the ropes
What games will we play today?
Baseball, basketball, dodge ball
The sound of sneakers squealing on the gym floor
Like race cars around a track
Sweat on our faces like early morning dew
Participating in gym is a piece of cake
Gym is a healthy snack for me
I wish it was everday.
