All I Really Need To Know...

Read this poem and post your responses.

All I Really Need To Know I Learned In Kindergarten
by Robert Fulghum


Most of what I really need
To know about how to live
And what to do and how to be
I learned in kindergarten.
These are the things I learned:
Share everything.
Play fair.
Don't hit people.
Put things back where you found them.
Clean up your own mess.
Don't take things that aren't yours.
Say you're sorry when you hurt somebody.
Wash your hands before you eat.
Flush.
Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you.
Live a balanced life -Learn some and think some
And draw and paint and sing and dance
And play and work everyday some.
Take a nap every afternoon.
When you go out into the world,
Watch out for traffic,
Hold hands and stick together.
Be aware of wonder.

1.The sentence that is the most significant to me is "Put things back where you found them" because in kindergarten, we always used to play with toysand when it was time to clean up, my teacher would always say "Put the things that you played with back were they were and if you see anyone else's toys hanging around, be polite and pick it up."

2.The things I learned in 5th grade:

1)"Don't stir up the pot"

2)1,2,3 eyes on Mr.T or Mrs.V

3)If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it at all.

4)It's important to make eye contact when your talking to someone.

5)Keep your hands to yourself!

6)The jobs of Different cells,what they do,and how they efect the way your body functions.

7)"When the hand goes up, the mouth goes shut!"

8)That middle school is hard at first but you get used to it after two weeks or so.

9)I learned about strange creatures like the blob fish.

10)How to create a blog.

11)The oil spill

12)The earthquake in Haiti

13)The Yada Yada Noise Control Scale

14)How to say hello in different launguages\

se1. The one that is significant to me is to wash your hands befor you eat because you will get your germs in someone elses food and more germs are going back into your body.
Mr.T is really cool he is getting us ready to go to middle school. He tought us how to play pranks wich is really cool. He lets us wach movies, play games, and have parties. Mr.T is really cool. Mr.T and Mrs.V works hard day and night to get us tought right. They tought us about the oil spill, 1,2,3 eyes on Mr.T or Mrs.V, when the hand goes up the mouth goes shut.
