Routines

For many nights, 

Children's voices echoed

 "Lyrics" from Goodnight Moon. 

I did not need to "read" them,

Every word was part of our routine.   

 Good night, kittens. Good night, mittens.
Good night, clocks. Good night, socks.
Good night, little house. Good night, mouse.

 

Every day,
Students' voices echo
"Lyrics" of Fundations, 
I do not need to "read" the chart,
 Every sound is part of our routine.

On Tuesdays,

Thanks to TWT,

Our voices echo a writing routine.

I do think about it, all week,

Every small moment,

A potential SOL. 

As the great writing gurus,

Donald, Lucy promised,

Readers, writers,

Eaters, sleepers,

Students, teachers,

All of us,

Are at our best,

With routines.
