Papura Reading Group - Poem and Jokes

Hey guys we have got some jokes to share with you and a poem we have read today.

THE SINK




The sink is an ocean of bubbles
The sink is a lake full of foam
The sink is a beach lined with froth
The sink is a cloud far from home

The sink is a chest full of treasure
The sink is a reef packed with wrecks
The sink is a tub full of pleasure
The sink is in up to it’s neck

The sink has the warmth of a bath
The sink has a smell quite delicious
The sink has the soft pop of fizzy
I just wish the sink had no dishes

We think this poem makes you think about the adventures and the pleasures of doing the dishes (not!)

Here are some jokes:


Q: Why couldn’t the sailors play cards?
A: Because the captain was standing on the deck

Q1: Why did the koala fall out of the tree?
A1: Because the branch was slippery

Q2: Why did the second koala fall out of the tree?
A1: Because it was stapled to the first koala!

Speech celebrations

Speeches Hi Ben and Sol here. We are here to tell you about our speeches. Ben and I did our speeches about people we admire. Ben did his speech on ‘DC’ also known as Daniel Carter and I did my speech on Sonny Bill Williams. We were very nervous but part way through our speeches we got more confident. Ben and I got chosen for the top speeches as well as some other people in our class by Mrs Miss Mason. And we got asked to do it again. But Ben was to nervous to do his again so he didn't. I did mine yesterday morning. Today we have just been told the results from the speech finals!
