1. Self-Starter: What's at the End of the Rainbow? Write at least a half page. This could be a poem, a brief story, an explanation, etc.
2. Time to work on newspaper articles.
3. Writing Limericks
And because you deserve some more serious poetry, too:

Some of our results:
I'm sitting here in a school
but I'd rather be at the pool.
I'd catch a beach ball
'til the principal makes a call,
and I end up back at the school. -- Emily H.
There once was a frog -- no a toad --
And when into the road he strode,
He was hit with a splat
and now he is flat.
He should never have gone in the road. -- Braden P.
There once was a boy called Sam
who really enjoyed eating ham.
He ate it all day
causing people to say,
"You should really try bread and jam." -- Hailey W.
On the ship on the ocean by me,
there's a man that you won't like to see.
His face is all haggard,
and this week he staggered,
and fell off his boat into the sea. -- Keziah A.
