LET'S PLAY VOLLEYBALL

Ballad of Volleyball Player

Practice,practice, practice each and every play,

That's what the coach always had to say.

Ready, call and move, pass it really high,

Step, jump and spike, give it another try..

Run, pass and hit when the ball comes your way,

Serve, jump and smash, try to keep it in play.

Practice, practice, practice each and every play,

That's what the coach always had to say.

Run, dig, and dive, make sure you call it mine,

Pass, set and spike, hit it down the line.

Run, cover and dig, to bump, set and spike,

Serve, jump and block until you got it right.

Practice, practice, practice each and every play,

That's what the coach always had to say.

READING IS FUN!

It's summer time and there is an explosion of ads displayed across the city with the message, READ, READ, READ. Why is that?
Isn't school out? Isn't it vacation time?
Well Pencil Pete has the answer for you.

Our minds never go on vacation.
It keeps exploring, discovering, and learning along the way.
One of the best methods to learn is reading.
During the summer, we get to choose what we want to read.

There are so many to choose from, picture books,
poetry, fiction, non-fiction, etc... So Pencil Pete recommends you go ahead and explore a whole new world in books. You will discover and learn that reading is fun.

I wrote a poem I want to share with you.
It's called, "READING IS FUN."                    

 READING IS FUN

Check out the cover, look inside the book,

Turn the page over, take a closer look.

Read the first line, imagine what you find,

You uncover a story that will dazzle your mind.

You find every page has a story to tell,

All about the characters and places they dwell.

This exciting new tale begins on page one,

You soon will discover that reading is fun.

Open up a book, read the first page,

The scene will emerge just like a stage.

You discover another world inside this book,

The adventure begins the moment you look.

You come across a story where a tale is told,

You read every word and watch it unfold.

The excitement continues beyond page one,

You experience the thrill that reading is fun.
