The Best Idea I've Ever Had.

So, I was thinking about what to do with my classes, and I decided I would teach them about syllables. Then, as I was thinking about that, I had the GENIUS idea to teach them how to write a Haiku (a 3-line, 13-syllable poem, with lines alternating between 5, 7, and 5 syllables each). As it turns out, I did this only for my amusement. I was not disappointed. My students can barely string a sentence together, so I knew that trying to get them to write poetry would just be magic. Ohhhhhh, it was. Anyway, I don't have much else to say about it, they will really speak for themselves. If there are words in [these], that's just my way of correcting things that were spelled very, very wrong.

Okay, here we go:

This is genuine

Import from America

Are you nauseated?

Thai land and people

I like Girl Frieng [Friend] beautiful

I dinner boy fring [friend]

(This next one goes out to Sarah Fasen...)

How I'm I!

I like to took [talk] tellphone [telephone]

I'm smile so cute

Britny [Brittany] is teacher

teache is very beauty

chilred [children] lovey she

(and now, for the grand finale....)

Okay, that's all. Seriously the best idea I have ever had. Ever.
