Inspired by the poem "Ode to Broken Things" by Pablo Neruda, Camila León's (ACE 29, Tulsa) class wrote a poem about their ode to 5th grade. Please enjoy the video that Ms. León's class made and the written poem below.
An ode to...
Amigos
Handshakes before class
soccer games before recess
Friday soccer games as a class
And playing soccer on the concrete when it has rained.
To debating whether Ms. Jennifer's
Waffles or Pancakes
Are better for breakfast. Mr. Jim's hard work
Ms. León's bucks
Highs, lows, and buffalos
Rizas
El Super Taco across the street
Fist bumps from Father Gabriel
Growing in Faith and Prayer
Attending school Mass,
St. Peter
And
St. Paul
But most of all...
An amazing
Year in 5th grade.
