Connor's First Day at School

Today on my very first day of school
I met my teacher, Mrs. Kile, she was soooo cool!
Her classroom was fun and decorated so nice
Which surely did help break the ice

She has a big reading tub in one corner of the room
Filled with blankets, and pillows, oh, I will get in there soon!
Strings with pins were hanging on the wall
To display our artwork we would do this fall

Then all of a sudden to my great surprise
A cute little guinea pig looked me dead in the eyes
So I, Connor Katz, decided right then and there
I would look after him with extra special care

Van Gogh was his given name
Eating crunchy vegetables, his favorite thing
His fur was soft, light brown and white
I couldn't let him out of my sight!

But, soon it was time to work on some drawings
I got busy working, but could still hear Van Gogh gnawing
This sound made me so hungry myself
Then I heard Mrs. Kile say, "please put your drawings on the shelf"

"Children please line up against the wall
We're going on a trip down the hall"
Off we went to the cafeteria for lunch
Shhhhh!... she said, we were such a noisy bunch

Quietly we marched down to the cafeteria
Where we ate so much it was almost hysteria!
Then off we went outside to play
Oh, it was such a glorious day!

Then back into class to read a good story
and play with Van Gogh, oh don't you worry!
All the children were careful with the tiny little creature
He was really sweet, and definitely the days main feature

We practiced our numbers and letters once more
Then cleaned up the room a couple minutes before
It was time to go catch the bus to go home
And see our dear parents who missed us while we were gone
