Katy won second place in a poetry contest at her school. There are four campuses, and two children were chosen from each grade from each campus. Then they chose the top three and she was second place. Her classmate Berkley won first place. All winners were invited to a special dinner where they were awarded a medal and a book with all the winners poems and essays in it. First graders were asked to choose a place and write about their five senses. Here is her award winning poem:
California
Looks like kids building sand castles and having fun.
Feels like the crashing waves pushing against me.
Tastes like the nasty ocean water getting in my mouth.
Sounds like the beautiful rippling waves at night.
Smells like families' lunches at noon.
Katy, Mrs. Hughes and Berkley
They had great big cupcakes and she couldn't eat it fast enough ♥
