Performance Poetry

The children have been working all week on performing a poem with expression, pace, volume and actions. Here is the poem. Are you brave enough to perform it to your family?

The School Kid’s Rap by John Foster

 Miss was at the blackboard writing with her chalk
When suddenly she stopped in the middle of her talk
She snapped her fingers, snap! snap! snap!
 Pay attention children and I’ll teach you how to rap.

 She picked up her a pencil, she started to tap,
All together children, now clap! clap! clap!
Just get the rhythm, just get the beat
Drum it with your fingers, stamp it with your feet.

That’s right children, keep in time,
Now we got the rhythm, all we need is the rhyme
This school is cool, Miss Grace is ace,
Strut your stuff with a smile on your face.

Snap those fingers, tap those toes,
Do it like they do on the video shows,
Flap it! Slap It! Clap!  Snap!  Clap

Let’s all do the school kids’ rap!
