After we made our class
web, we discussed different types of poetry. Our favorites were
the acrostic poem and one called Our Autumn Eyes Behold.
These were our favorites!
My Autumn Eyes Behold
Red apples in the tree
Orange jack-o-lanterns on Halloween
Yellow leaves everywhere
Brandon Justice
My Autumn Eyes Behold
Orange leaves on the ground
Yellow flames in candles
Orange jack-o-lanterns shimmering in the dark
Sean West
My Autumn Eyes Behold
Orange jack-o-lanterns in the windows
Black cats running across the road
Red trees in the back yard
Lauren Phillips
My Autumn Eyes Behold
Brown trees sitting in my yard
Red leaves lying on the ground
Green monsters that are trick-or-treating
Michael Ham
My Autumn Eyes Behold
Brown birds flying south
Golden dogs playing in the wind
Silvery moon up high in the sky

New friends on Thanksgiving
Oven roasted turkey
Very busy because we are going
to visit family
Everybody laughs and tries to
get along
My brother and me go pick
leaves
Big turkey
Eat a whole bunch
Remember our blessings

We also did a family
writing about favorite fall activities or traditions. We ended
up with great stories and memories:
Autumn
We pick
apples in the fall.
The whole
family has a ball.
We pick
pumpkins off a vine.
When we
carve them we have a good time.
We go to
Buck horn as a family.
We eat
Thanksgiving dinner and play games while
Watching
the fire send smoke up the chimney.

Fall
Fall
means football.
Go tigers
beat them all!
Fall
means Halloween,
Ghosts
and goblins not to be seen.
Fall
means pumpkin pie.
I can’t
wait! My, oh my.

The Apple Orchard
Every fall we go to an
apple orchard. We pick lots of apples. There are tow
playgrounds, and we played on one of them. Her was a
playhouse. There were also big haystacks. We still have some
apples. My dad picked a basket full. We saw honeybees.

Finally, since it was
an election year, we had a mock election and graphed our class
results. We also wrote letters to the president of our wishes
for our country.
