Mrs. Childs, 5th Grade 5th Grade
I hear the boy behind me
smacking on M&M’s. I hear
the water fountain going
shhhhh. I hear people tapping
their pencils going tap tap
tap. I hear people talking
going pssss psssss. I hear
people clicking their keyboard
going click click click.
I hear the swish of the basketball hitting the net
I hear the crack of a baseball bat hitting a home run
I hear the klunk of a baseball mitt catching a fastball
I hear the pitter patter of the rain falling from the sky
I hear the bounce of a basketball being dribbled
I hear the shhhh of the wind wooshing
I hear the flow of the river
These are my favorite sounds
Mr. Goldner, 5th Grade 5th Grade
I hear the microwave humming
I hear the cabinet door slamming
I hear my dog go bark, bark
I hear the soup go bubble, bubble
I hear the whispers in my ear
I hear the stove go tic, tic
I hear my sister screaming
at the top of her lungs
I hear my shoes go tap, tap
I hear the talking fade away
I hear the alarm clock go ding, ding
