Acrostic poem week

Over the last two weeks, contrary to the assignment you saw from last time, we wrote acrostic poems. Here they are:

Bookworm:

Cat

Careful

As quiet as a mouse.

Tarantula spotted!

Thirsty

Daughter

Dearest Daughter,

Astounding,

Unerring,

Good-

Hearted,

Terrifically

Energetic,

Rarest Love.

Lady Grey

Name #1

Lady Grey is an

Awesome pen name.

Don't

You agree?

Girls everywhere are

Responding to it with

Envy and

Yearning.

Name #2

Luscious

And

Dramatic

You

Garner

Reactions

Everywhere,

Yes?

Since Lady Grey and Thirsty went to New York City without Bookworm last week, we decided to postpone the story assigned and instead wrote these acrostic poems. Therefore, this week we will read the story, "The Necklace of Princess Fiorimonde" by Mary de Morgan.

Some exciting news:

Lady Grey found out that she will have two technical papers published in the next few months! Very exciting.

Thirsty submitted an article to a local sports magazine about his experience with running and Lyme Disease. Several years ago, after some extremely scary symptoms that occurred off and on for several years, he was diagnosed with Lyme Disease. He was afraid that he would never be able to run again, but luckily he was able to overcome the disease and strengthen his body and affected joints and resume running again. He even completed a full marathon!

Bookworm won second place in a talent competition in her after-school program for reciting a beautiful poem that she wrote about a year ago.

Cheers,
