Good VibrationsText Box: With an evil eye that stares you down
and a bulbous warty nose,
a furrowed brow, a nasty scowl,
and old outdated clothes,
my costume is the scariest
the world has ever seen.
I'm not an ogre, ghost, or ghoul:
I'm a teacher for Halloween.
Robert,  4th grade
Text Box: Autumn is here!
Unbelievable colors begin to appear as leaves change
   colors
The squirrels are busy gathering nuts for their 
   winter nap
Unusual piles appear in yards as people start to 
   rake fallen leaves
Moms bake cookies and make hot chocolate for their
   hungry children
Now fall is here!  We love it!   
                                                          Brianna,  age 10
Text Box: Flocks of geese or others flying to a warmer place.
Autumn leaves fluttering off the trees.
Leaves of summer turn red, yellow, brown, and fall off the trees.
Later in the fall, everyone in the family sits down to a big Thanksgiving feast.
                          Nathan, age 8

Pumpkin picking is fun
Very fun
When I see the pumpkins
I start to run.
I run to the biggest pumpkin I see
I tell my brothers, this one's for me!
The field is very, very orange.
I picked one pumpkin, but I want some more-ange.
I look at the pumpkins big, medium, small
I look at them all
They are round.
They make no sound.

The perfect fall for me,
contains laughter, fun, colored leaves,
restful peace, perfect bliss,
apple pies and winds crisp kiss,
crunch and crackle, slopes of color,
the fire dances, down slopes the sun,
animals nestle beneath the moon,
foggy mornings coming soon,
for another perfect fall day,
where i can go once more to play.

Autumn
color, candy
running, jumping in leaves
pretty, yummy, colder, funner

The Autumn leaves change colors and shape
as the weather changes throughout the year,
If you watch real closely in the trees
you may even see some deer.

When you come home from school
to sit by the nice cozy fire
you know you can sit with ease,
because you know that mom's going
to bring you some nice warm cider
and you'll always know to say please.
