Welcome
Goodbye vacation!
Hello to school!
Hello new classmates,
Goodbye old pool.
Vacation time's over,
School time is here,
Once more we welcome
Another school year.
Today is the day!
Hurray! Hurray!
It's the first day of school
And I'm on my way!
Everything's different
Nothing's the same
Because I'm going to learn
To write my name!
~by Patricia Hubbell
First Day of School
I wonder
if my drawing
will be as good as theirs
I wonder
if they'll like me
or just be full of stares
I wonder
if my teacher
wil look like Mom or Gram
I wonder
if my puppy
will wonder
where I am!

Going To School
Going to school,
You always run;
When it's not late,
You stop for fun!
You watch a squirrel,
Climb up a tree,
Gaze at the tree,
Gaze at the sky
For things to see.
There's singing birds,
A roaring place,
The pecking sun,
A drop of rain.
You'd like to stay,
But there's a yell --
A friend's shouting,
"Come on, the bell!"
~Clare Miseles
School Time
School is here again
Summer's at an end.
See me work and play,
On an autumn day.
First Day of School
Always more of everything;
Reading, writing, figuring
Books to read and words to spell -
Hurry, there goes the bell!
Seems as if they might get through
Finding things for us to do!
~Rachel Field
September
September is a time
Of beginning for all,
Beginning of school
Beginning of fall.
