Carolyn Beatrice Parker Elementary

Sand mounts in a trail belong to pocket gophers.
Brownish, long, thin leaves everywhere.
I feel them here and there.
Fresh air reminds me of a palm tree.
Which takes me to the sea.
When in every corner are loud crickets.
My dad still plays wickets.
The forest was big like an elephant but more enormous.
The trees waved at me as if they were calling me.
Hi to you too little and bit trees!
-
The cows mooing louder than the sonic boom
Hear children roaring when the bell rings
Ear’s shaking like trembling rocks
Feel the beat of the farm
A pig oinking like thunder
Roaring everywhere
Might you come there?
-
Let’s go for a walk zebra tail butterfly so pretty as a flower
Timuaua hut walls made with straw
Sheep feels like a cloud
Cow big and stinky
Chickens cute and small
Pig dirty and big
-
On the bus to Morningside it was loud
When we were there
Everyone ran off the bus
On the nature walk we sat down
We close our eyes and
We heard the trees
It sounded like they were talking to us
Then we saw a snake named Dan
I was scared to pet Dan
He looked like a chess board
Then we played Chunkee
People were yelling so loud wen they won
-
Beautiful sunny day.
Walking to the farm
Sheep are soft like a plushie
Snakes are scary as the sea.
I feel the air the air feels invisible.
I touched the snake the snake was soft as a pillow
-
I saw two brown and white cows with short horns.
I heard the sheep say a low baaaa.
I smelled cow poop. it was disgusting.
I felt the moist lips as the sheep ate the seeds from my hand.
The pigs were as black as a panther.
Chomping chickens chased other chickens.
-
There was a cabin that was brown and I could see vintage stuff inside.
I hear crickets oinks, and birds chirp also baas and moos.
I can smell peppa pigs poop hay.
I feel fluffy furry sheep.
The sheep was as white as a cloud.
The hay tickles like pine needles.
-
I saw a sharp, old, arrowhead.
I heard birds chirping and it was high pitched.
I smelled smoke from a bow drill.
I felt the soft dear skin.
The hut was as sandy as the beach.
The seeds sounded so shaky
-
The red and gold snake was big and long.
The birds were chirping far away and close,
then the wood was cracking when I was walking.
The burning wood from the fire smelled like smoke.
The hut was scratchy and the leaves were hard,
crunchy, and bumpy.
The snake was as soft as a pillow.
The soft and sneaky snake scared students.
-
Noise, hot day
Scales of a snake like a squishy toy
Fur of a bear, bear, bunny nature, soft like a pillow
Burned trees, Animals homes
Butterflies lite pink flowers
Wood, chicken, black pigs.
-
I can see the sheep are fuzzy and white.
I heard a loud moo!
I smelt cows poop all over.
I felt some white fuzz.
The pigs were as black as night time.
The lizard winked at me.
-
I saw a mini axe made out of sticks and rocks.
I heard squeaks from the bow drill.
I smelled smoke from the bow drill.
I felt warm grass under my hands.
The hut was dark like the night.
The spear spirals to it can catch the rabbit.
The end
-
I can see pine trees. Its trunk was brown, it had pine needles. There were green.
I heard the birds sing sweetly and tweet nicely.
I smelled pine needles it smelled like christmas trees.
I feel pine needles it was tickly.
The lizard was brown as the tree trunk.
The butterfly dance in the sky.
Hidden Oak Elementary

A lovely trip
I heard some old music
And woodpecker’s pecking
Leaves were crunching
Oh what a beautiful trip!
-
I went to a farm. And it had a lot of animals like a cow mooing, a sheep saying baa, and a pig saying oink, oink.
And it smelt like old hay, and fresh hay to feed the cows with.
I also felt cold wind on my body, and sheeps fur as soft as a pillow.
I also went on a nature walk. I heard the little crickets chirping.
And the last place we went to was the Timucua Hut.
I heard arows getting thrown in the ground and leaves getting crumbled.
I smelled wood, smoke and old plants.
-
Touching a snake
Seeing cool stuff
Feeding lambs
With them licking my hand
Hearing birds sing a song
Going on a walk
In the nature park
Seeing green grass
That is actually pine trees
Seeing the old time stuff
Walking around
The chickens
Singing loudly
Seeing cows to
I smell smoke
Watching a fire start
Hearing all the stories
Playing a game
That’s fun
I will come again
Oh nature park
So fun
So bright
I loved being here
Oh nature park
I hope soon
I will see u again
-
I heard music it was just like my grandpa playing on his guitar
And some cows mooing it sounded a little bit like my dad snoring
and I heard sheep to. I smelled hay it smelled weird, and i smelled some corn.
And i felt some cows they felt smooth and some sheep they felt like a bed.
And i see some an old school and animals and sheep. and i hear people and airplanes and leafs
crunching. smoke and animals i felt trees and a snake.
I hear leafs and friction and marakas.
I smell animal fur and huts. a hut a stone knife, bear fur and deer fur and rabbit fur.
I see animal skine and spers, arows, wepons.
-
The pine needles were
as sharp as a sword
on top of the tree.
it was like from bottom to top.
The nature
The nature is as quiet as a mouse.
The dirt was as soft as a cloud.
-
The leaves crunch as a chip
The sheep baaa in the wind
The grass whispered in the air
The trees is so tall like a giraffe
Bird beak like a eagle
Snake skin smooth as butter
Animals fur soft as a baby cow
-
The cows moo the birds chirp
The leaves fall the trees grow
It was like a rainbow
The man on a porch sung a song
And we all sang along
I learned a new Game called chucky
It was fun and very funny
We all went in a school
yes it was tiny
But the history was mighty
Yes we saw some burnt wood
But it helps the environment
at least that’s what i understood
I got to pet a snake
yes it was scary but it was not hairy
At the end I said goodbye
Yes it was hard but I had a great time
-
The wool on the sheep was as soft as a blanket
The cows spots were very dark when I saw it
The sound of the banjo was as pretty as a plant
The snake felt really scaly
The smoke smelt like a bbq it smelt so good.
It was warm when I touched it. I loved the experience.
-
Trees had less leaves
Trees glared as they shimmer above the clouds.
They were so tall I couldn’t see the tippy top.
the house of horror
In the house all the skulls were creepy as a ghost.
The snake made shivers down my spine
All the stuffed animals made me scared.
Fungi fields
Alot of tree logs on the ground probably termites feast.
On the logs there are little poop pellets.
The trees were burnt as a piece of charcoal. i saw loads of pollen
Farm frey
The sheep’s tongues felt like slime with goopy charms.
The cow’s moo was deeper than a hold in the ground.
The little chicken was as cute as a panda.
As the cow atem my hay the other cow hit Eiden with his hay. It was funny.
The cow pooped in front of my why: I
The pine hut
Holding the bear, bunny and racoon skin is horror
It makes me think of how they killed them spear, dagger, knife
In the hut it was really dark and I just swooped like pelican. in and out
I liked holding the objects THAT AREN’T ANIMAL SKIN!
spearing
Really fun. I wish I could do it again.
It was like throwing sticks but FUNNER.
Sadly i didn’t win but at least it was F U N
High sky
lots of planes and jets in the sky.
At the end i went home
-
You walk through forest
The trees wave hi
Wiregrass dancing in the wind like a ballerina
And you feel leaves crunching under your feet
For some reason when you go inside a native Americans hut
And you take a breath
You smell the grass and you feel like a native American
And see the farm the cows there the color of carmel
The sheeps bah sound like music
And at the end of the day tho pretty
It was cold to
-
The Farm is as crazy as a mess.
The cow is as brown as pine cones.
The sheep is as noisy as a megaphone.
-
The Timucua Hut, the wind, as cold as a frigid day. The Farm, as sacred as gold, The Nature Walk, as peaceful as meditating, and the grass is dancing by the air
-
The pigs tusks are as long as a building.
The bird was as red as a apple.
The hut was as scary as a spider.
The sheep are as fluffy as a puffball.
The cows looks like a plushy.
