The Night Before Christmas

I heard Santa saying ho-ho merry Christmas

The Things that Shrill at Night
Ivellis F.
I hear birds sing a lullaby
They chirp & chirp and never say bye
The cars beep and beep all night
The bed it squeaks like a ghost at night
Those are the shrills I hear at night
What I Hear
Armando T.
The bell goes ding-dong
The pencils go scree scree
The kids at recess go giggle giggle
The kids running go bonk bonk
The students eating go munch munch
The wind I hear goes whoosh whoosh
The kids go yay yay at the end of the day
Cooks
Elijah R.
The bacon and corn dogs go sssss,
The water’s running at home,
I make some popcorn pop pop
I open a can of soda pop tizzzzz
I see smoke from food
I hear clamp clamp from pans
I hear quietness now
Ms. Lozada
4th Grade
Morning Noises
Lesley R.
My bed goes crack when I get up,
the stairs go skrik when I go
down stairs, then I pull the
chair to sit down, as I start
to each the fork scratches
my plate, when I hear
my mom wash the dishes
the water goes whoosh, whoosh,
splash, splash
Bam
John M.
When I think I tap my pencil
When I get mad I go “bam!”
Sounds That I Hear
Nathan G.
I hear the builders hammer go like
thud-thud-thud
I hear my neighbors do go bark-
bark-bark
I hear my mom’s car horn go like
beep-beep-beep
I hear my stairs go squeak-squeak-
squeak
I hear stores doors go ding-
dong, ding-dong
I hear my thumbs go thud-
thud-thud on the desk
I hear Ms. Beth speaking
awesome
Sounds of My Life
Kate D.
In the lunch I hear the creaming of the kids talking
I hear the whoosh of my rack in tennis class
The ball bouncing boing in my house
I hear the songs make a beat, boom boom
I hear the trees plop in the wind
The football going shh and they catch it
I hear the rain popping in the floor
