Spelling Bee

Scene: This morning, a letter-loving Poki is playing with a bumblebee maraca from his instrument box. He looks at the wings, which are shaped like the letter "B"...

Poki: Hey! He has "B" wings!

Mom: That's right--they do look like the letter "B"!

Poki: Buh...buh...bumblebee! He has "B" wings because bumblebee starts with the letter "B"! Buh...buh...bumblebee! Buh...Buh...Bum-Buhle-Bee! Hey bumblebee has lots of the letter "B" in it!


Way to go, Poki! You'll be reading before we know it!

Letter To Santa

The following is a letter I dictated to my mom:

Dear Santa,

I've been a very good boy this year and I hope I'm on your nice list! I would like to visit you and help you build toys with my hammer. I would bring you a present to go with your other presents. And I would also give you a hug. I would also give you a kiss.

This year for Christmas, I hope that you will bring me a present. I would like a garbage truck with a dumpster. I would also like a garage for my cars. And I would like some new books.

I'm excited about seeing you and singing Jingle Bells with you!

Love,
Poki

ps
I would also like a gas tank and a crossing gate.
