Last week, Kozminski students dabbled in personification. Together, we practiced giving human-like qualities to non-living things then had a great conversation about our favorite colors. We then tried personification by brainstorming as many yellow things as we could think of. After making a big list of school buses, bumblebees, and cheese, students then got to write about their favorite colors. It was so hard choosing a few poems to publish this week; be sure to check out a few great ones below:
4th Grade
Black
by Micah T.
Black is scared of the dark alleyways.
Black covers his ears from the loud black crows.
Black loves the smooth jazz.
Black loves to pick the fresh blackberries.
Black wears his black durag every night.
Black likes their coffee black.
Black likes to taste the cold blackberry slushes.
Black is smooth like the savory silky black material.
Black loves to go to the family function just for the food.
Black loves to eat the black part of the Oreos.
Pinky
by Jamia H.
Pinky smells the bubblegum.
Pinky hears raspberries.
Pinky sees flamingos.
Pinky eats strawberries.
Pinky feels covers and shoes.
5th Grade

by Toriano J.

Red likes to go out and play with his friends

Green
by SemaJ G.
Green wakes up to the sound of frogs and crickets each day.
Green smells of blades of grass and leaves for trees rustling in the wind.
Green looks at alligators and snakes at the zoo.
Green loves eating limes and key lime pie.
Green feels his pet chameleon and pairs of Nikes.
Green loves to take care of trees in his backyard.
Red
by Beckett D.
Red flies around and chirps like a cardinal
Red is warm like a blanket
Red is as sweet as Kool-Aid
When red speaks it is so loud it sound like it revs an engine
Red spends lots of time in the fall leaves
Red picks apples in its spare time
Red slips onto your foot when you leave the house
Red wiggles all the time
Red smells like jam when it eats toast
Red is bright when it becomes the evening
Red shouts like a fire truck and people always get out of the way
