Poem for Two Voices by Symi and Callie

Poem for Two Voices by Symi and Callie

Morning Girl	Together	Star Boy
I like mornings		I like night
	We choose family over everything
I’m more quite than others		I’m very outgoing
	We both help around the house
People treat me with respect	Our family expects a lot out of us	People still treat me like a kid
I was excited for a new sister		I wasn’t excited for a new sister
	We like to be alone
I like to be independent		I like for people to notice me
	We share a lot of things in common

I feel great being on a team knowing that they are all wanting to help each other  I love winning, and receiving trophies, that make me feel honored, its an amazing feeling!
    


Outdoors are a big part of my life. I live with redwoods, and forest all around me. I love waking up to the sun peeking through the big trees tat surround me house. Whenever my friends and I are bored we always go on walks through trails or what not. They are such an amazing thing to look at, and find animals that live near them!

Morning Girl Response

   The book "Morning Girl" was a very interesting book that I enjoyed. I thought that they were a very close family who tried to stay positive. I thought that the part where the storm came was an interesting part that helped show that they can stay strong, and always have a positive mood, no matter what. They defiantly have a different lifestyle compared to now. They had to get there food by hunting, fishing. Which is great!

Nature Name

Beach Girl

  If I had a nature name I would want it to be beach girl. I am absolutely in love with the beach. I enjoy going in to the waves and swimming under them. I love the sun shining on my making new tan lines on me. I enjoy the warm sand that helps me warm up. I love being barefoot on the beach stepping on warm softy rocks, and the sand that comforts at the perfect shape of my foot.

Personal Response

The Rope Swing

  One day during summer, Symi and I were very bored. We tried many different things to keep us entertained. We were in my back yard watching my tree that shined down from the sun. I came to a conclusion that I wanted to make a swing on the tree. Symi agreed that we could, so we got some rope, a thick block of wood and a driller from my dad. We looked up trying to fine a good branch that could not only hold us but hold others as well. Once we found our branch we knew we would have to saw some branches that were in the way. Symi and I both got hand saws and began to saw. We had about five large branches that were getting thrown in a pile. From sawing we were grouchy, tired, and sweaty. Symi and I got in a few little fights, but still continued. Once I had tied the rope to the thick branch, Symi drilled the hole in the block of wood. Once the hole was centered in the wood we put the rope through and tied under it. I tested the swing out and it gave me butterflies that I loved. Me and Symi had a very fun day with the swing.

Clothes

   I am addicted to clothes. I love washing clothes. I love the smell of laundry detergent, and clean clothes. I like getting new clothes, and the feeling of them on my skin. It feels goo knowing you got new clothes to wear and looking good. 

Beach

  One of my favorite places to be is at the beach. I love the sun that makes the sand warm once i get out of the waves that crash over me. I like getting in the ocean knee height and waiting for a wave to come so I can swim under it. The coldness refreshes me every single I do it.
