On Thursday, the writers at Poetry Camp played all their favorite games, and then learned a new game I call "question and answer". The writers were asked to pair off, and then write questions and answers separately, sitting back to back, thus not knowing what their partner was writing. The results were hilarious!
After writing time, I handed the students typed versions of all the poems they've written so far, and we had a mini-reading for each other. It gave several of our shyer students a pressure-free chance to get some experience reading with the chairs in an "audience" configuration. After writing our own snappy jump-rope chant, we headed outside to practice! We hope to perform it for you next week! Enjoy some questions and answers...
Why do numbers never stop?
Because blueberries fell on the sky and they cracked open to make the sky blue.
How does ice cream melt?
By looking at the price.
Why is water wet?
Because babies don't like to eat french fries on Sunday.
What are stars made of?
They are all big, fat, fuzzy pigs named Stan.
Why does ice cream sing when mad?
Because tulips are flowers.
What is ice cream?
It is slimy teddy bears with pink swimcaps.
How does your blood flow?
By kicking frogs off their lilypads.
Why do Princess Ponies eat rainbows?
Because aliens love human tacos.
What is sand?
It is regurgitated tin cans.
How does the earth turn around?
By burping out frogs.
