Three poems I

Three poems I wrote for school.  Sorry It's long, Admin. 

This one was working on sound devices:

 

Zebra

 

Zebra with your stripes of black,

or is it with your stripes of white?

Will we ever know or see,

which is wrong and which is right?

 

Zebra one and Zebra two,

you nor I can tell the difference!

With your stripes and hoofs so fast,

the lion great can't stand a chance!

Writing contests

Writing contests

What do you think is the best writing contest ( for kids)? Oh, and Admin, do you know if Cricket is doing a writing contest next issue?

 

Hi Ann,

 The January contest is an art contest, but there will definitely be a writing contest sometime in the next few issues (we just haven't figured out which one yet)!

Ok, so heres

Ok, so heres my problem. I've been writing this story for a couple years now, it's very close to me. I came up with the idea of it when i was about 9 and i had a dream. The story took off from there. My problem is, is that i've got a bunch of great characters, i know the plot, but for some reason whenever i try to write some of it i draw a blank. Any tips?

Hello ya'll! :)

Hello ya'll! :) Like Principal Gloworm said, for the short period that G.P.P.S is closed, I will  be doing a tutoring system! :) Here is how it works...

 

You: Pop in, and say 'Hello, my name is ____, I need help with _______, my age level is _____.'

 

I: Greet, and help, you.

 

You: Say either "Ahh, I get it now!" or "AHHH! I need more help!"

.

Basically, I will tutor, and you will get the help you need. :) It is open..now.

Hello all! G.P.P.S

Hello all! G.P.P.S will be closed down for a few short weeks. :) It WILL be back up, this is just a temporary fix to get some problems sorted.

 

Also - During the time that this is down, I will have a quick tutoring system for those who couldn't get in my class / can't devote all their time to my class. 

This tutoring system will not be something you have to sign up for. :) You can just pop in and say 'Hey, I need help with....' and one of the teachers will help. :)

Villains

Villains

Who are your favorite villains?  Least favorite?  What do you think makes a great villain?  Have any of you made any extraordinary (or ordinary for that matter) villains recently?  Also, any advice for making a great villain?  Sorry if there's already a villain thread, though I didn't see one!

Villain chat room! Muahaha!

Who is not doing NaNo? Anyone besides me?

I considered it, but decided not to do it since I didn't have any good ideas for a book. I have trouble coming up with plot sometimes. Also, I didn't really I have high standards for myself, which can make writing really stressful, not to mention s-l-o-w. I probably ought to get over that sometime, but oh well.
