We worked really hard to learn our parts and get our performance down packed.  Valerie and I decided we were going to change our poem on Monday, and we were set to perform on Wednesday.  Francis volunteered the poem "The Generals".  It sounded good and would make a good performance so we went for it.  Elise was going to be the narrator, I was General Clay, and Valerie was General Bore.
We also had to memorize a part of James and the giant Peach.
 
Everything went great, but it was the busiest time in the semester for me and I thought I would have a nervous breakdown...but we got through it.

William Blake 


Three Things to Remember

A Robin Redbreast in a cage
Puts all Heaven in a rage.

A skylark wounded on the wing
Doth make a cherub cease to sing.

He who shall hurt the little wren
Shall never be beloved by men.

Open a book and open your imagination!
