Odes from fourth-graders

BaseBall Hitting

I catch, I throw, I hit

I run as fast as the shot of a gun

I dive, I thrive

I am the pitcher,

I am the outfielder

I am the infielder

I throw as fast as a beam

I am the whole team.

Basketball

Sprinting

down court

I ali-oop, I slam-dunk, I shoot

the ball up over a player's head,

I play defense and offense,

head to head

after the game,

I feel like I'm dead.

By: Zack Scott

Basketball

I slam-dunk

From New York all the way to Los Angeles,

I dribble like I am Kobe Bryant,

I shoot like I am mini Michael Jordan,

I slam like I am Shaquille O'Neal,

I might just have

All these players

On my team,

If they can ram I might just be the Chicago Bulls

Basketball

I shoot

I dribble

I do a crossover

I Run as fast as I can

I'm the point guard

I set up the plays

My team is losing by two

I shoot a three

It's in it's in we win!

By Tommy Pickett

Basketball

Shooting

From the three point line

I run, I shoot, I score;

I jump to whirring sound an inch above the ground;

I'm the player and the ref.

I'm the shooter and the passer

I'm the one and only

Shooter, scorer, and passer.

Dancing

Twirling

A wooden floor

I leap, I jump, I sway

I dance to the sound piano

I move like I'm in a cloud

I twirl two times before I stop

I'm the one and one dancer.

By: Riley Mathies

Playing

I hit, I catch, I punt

I hit the ball over the base and across the street;

I'm the player and the runner,

I'm the hitter and the catcher

I'm the one and only single engine human

player.

By: Ashley Erickson

Surfing

I surf

On a gold a sea

I turn, I glide, I jump,

I fly above the ground,

I'm the surfer and the

Board,

I glide across the sea,

I'm the only one

Surfing the wave.

The Dashing Dancer

Dancing

on the stage

I spin, I twirl, I sway,

I dance to the music

I'm the dancer and

The dance

I'm the beautiful music that I dance to

I'm the only

dancing machine.

By: Sara Braun

The Baseball Hitter

Hitting across the field

I slide, I catch, I bat

I run to the base

To get the batter out and

Put the batter in their bunk

I'm the catcher and the batter,

I'm the baseman and

Outfielder, I'm the

One and only baseball player.

By: Asa Lohr

The Basketball Player

Shooting

I dribble, I jump, and I block;

I jump to slam 3 feet above

The ground; I'm the pilot and the lane,

I'm the surfer and the surfboard,

I'm the one and only single wing

human auto plane.

The Beautiful Dancer

Spinning on

A dance floor

I leap, I sway, I spin;
