Narrative Poem

Example of a narrative poem:

Jimmy Goes to the City by Arthur Read
Jimmy was a happy ape
Until some hunters caught him
He liked the jungle better than
The city where they brought him
The city was louder
The city was meaner
Even the dirt in the jungle was cleaner
So Jimmy made a daring escape!
The hunters were suddenly minus one ape!
He climbed the tallest building
Because from there he'd see
How far away the jungle was
From the middle of the city.
Jimmy jumped into a passing plane
But the pilot didn't wait for him to explain
Jimmy flew back to the jungle
And told his ape friends in their lair
"The city's okay for a visit
But you couldn't make me live there."

Hot Hort Park

Was out for a seminar the other day at Hort Park. Really a hot day there. Anyway, it was my first time there and we took the chance to explore the park during our lunch break. Nothing much there, but some interesting spots.

I can do it!

Dear 4G,

I've updated some of your links and added many of your friends' blogs. Do check them out when you want. :)

8 weeks, or rather 2 months, are over and you will be taking your CA1 next week. Nothing is too difficult. Sit for the papers seriously and confidently and you will do well. I believe you can do it! :)

Dinosaurs & Fossils

Dear 4G,

We're starting on a new unit next week, Dinosaurs and Fossils. I'm sure this must be a favourite topic for the young men in class! Were you ever curious what happened to those dinosaurs that were extinct? What are fossils? How were dinosaurs in "Jurassic Park" created? I believe this will be a very interesting topic for us. Keep those questions coming. We will discuss in class very soon! :)
