In honor of the fact that we’ve had every season all at one time in Chicago this week, we talked about our favorite seasons. We read Nikki Giovanni’s “Knoxville, TN” and talked about what specific details she chose to describe her childhood summers. We brainstormed details to tell our specific experiences of the seasons.
Spring
–Nihal
I like spring the best.
The trees bloom and wake
hello. I like how the
flowers come out
of nowhere and we pick
them so we can make
flower boquets. The way
spring break says hello to
those tired kids. How it’s not too
cold and not too hot. My birthday
waits for me in the summer.
Goodbye winter hello spring!
Spring
–Ubaidah
I also really like spring
Because you can pick up
so beautiful flowers on the
green grass and smell
them.
And it can be so warm
and can see the
shining yellow
bright sun.
And the cotton candy
looking soft white clouds.
And can
east a lot of
ice cream outside and play
outside too!
Snow
–Brandon
I always like it when it’s snowing
outside and when I wake up
cold under many pillows and
blankets
and tired, turning on the tv
on youtube while playing on
my phone.
little later I play on
my PS5.
