HALLOWEEN POEM by Fiona

 

Free candy is a delight, but watch out for fright                  

zombies vampires John Cena and more they will be you’re

nights galore

Trick-Or-Treaters everywhere they might give you a bit of a scare, But just beware of the house on end of the street, you don’t know what you might meet

Although I do, I never want to go back to the house on the end of the street because I do know for what you will meet.

Into the mansion the deeper you go, at the end you will scream OH NO,

You see a monster with eyes as big as  boulders, “ IT JUST TOUCHED ME ON THE SHOULDER, You run out of the house back on to the street For now you are safe but not until you meet the next monster of the street.

Halloween is coming round

All get ready to parade around town

Laughing and playing in the streets you hear an odd sound

Labels you check to make sure they’re still there

Old costumes combine to make new

Why oh why is it so fun, maybe because you get to eat candy all day long

Especially because you get to dress up

Even get an excuse to EAT CANDY lots of candy

Never will you go back again to not eating candy

Blogging Challenge Week – Holiday by Grace

No School!     
During the snow storm, while most of Poughkeepsie had no power I did. We got about five inches of snow which was fun on the day it fell. My brother and I went sledding which I enjoyed. The next day however I had no fun at all. We tried to go sledding but the snow wasn’t firm any more. Throughout the day the sun came out and all the snow melted. My grandfather and aunt who live in California came to our house for two weeks. While the power was out at our school I got to spend a little bit more time with them and  make cookies for them.

Halloween was also very fun. Cally and I went around Woodstock to every store and house there. We didn’t get so much candy but getting candy wasn’t the real reason that we had come to Woodstock. At about seven o’clock we went to Cally’s mom and got a bottle of shaving cream each, then headed for the center of Woodstock where random kids ran around town with all the other six, seven and eighth graders spraying each other with shaving cream. Most kids in Woodstock have a shaving cream fight every year.

Cally and I stayed at the fight for about two hours then went back to C.P.W which is one of the places Cally’s parents work. We waited out side while Cally’s dad (Phil) went to get our candy inside. People started taking pictures of us because we were so covered in shaving cream that our whole body was completely white. A few days later I realized I was on the cover of the Woodstock newspaper covered in shaving cream. After he came out we walked to the car. Before we got in, Phil had to cover the seats with garbage bags and give us a towel to wipe some of the shaving cream off with. The car ride was uncomfortable but when I got home I took shower and went to bed. It had been a very exhausting night. I was very surprised to here from my mom that our school still had no power! I still had power. I had nothing to do but sit around and wait. The only problem with that was I had no idea what I was waiting for.  After an hour of reading and doing homework, I finally went into the kitchen for lunch.

On Wednesday morning my aunt and grandfather left to go back to California. I was sad that they were leaving but my aunt had to get back to her farm, and my grandfather just wanted to go back to his home. In the afternoon I didn’t really do anything except for doing homework and reading. Later that night I got ready for bed late, thinking that Thursday would just be another day without any school, and was prepared to go on Edmodo (which is an online website to talk with everyone in your group) and have humanities online. I went into my mom’s office and said goodnight to her and she told me that tomorrow we would have school and it would be a G day which is one of the letter days in our schedule. I was exited to finally go to school after such a long weekend but at the same time I was sad to finish relaxing at home and go back and do work. I went back to my room and saw all the classes I had on G day, then got my bag ready so I wouldn’t be unprepared in the morning. I woke up in the morning tired because I went to sleep late. I got ready and went down stairs to eat breakfast. I was happy to finally go back to school from such a long weekend.
My five day weekend was overall very fun.
