Some students in Mr. Adenuga’s class were still interested in creating poems that give instructions for how to do things….and so we continued. Notice how one student chose a straight forward approach, while others chose to explore the non-traditional recipe form. Enjoy!

How to Organize Your Things
by Keamariye W.
It is important to be organized
so your stuff won’t just be laying on the floor
You can get a dresser to help you
organize your clothes and shoes
So many things need organizing
like tools that you use to fix cars and toys
You don’t want to lose things that
are really important like your phone, money,
or your computer
You should get a binder for your papers
You will have a good life if you stay organized
because all of your stuff is in the right place

then, get your favorite book

with a little bit of quiet and
1 teaspoon of noise
