  1. Love That Dog By: Sharon Creech Pages 22-59

  2. Love That Dog: Pages 22-24 January 17th And maybe That’s the same thing That happened with Mr. Robert Frost. Maybe he was just Making pictures with words About the snowy woods And the pasture— And his teacher Typed them up And they looked like poems So people thought They were poems. Like how you did With the blue-car things And reading-the-small-poems thingsOn the board Typed up They look like Poems And the other kids Are looking at them And they think They really are Poems And they Are all saying Who wrote that? Remember the wheel barrow poem You read The first week Of school? Maybe the wheelbarrow poet Was just Making a picture with words And someone else Like maybe his teacher Typed it up And then people thought It was a poem Because It looked like one Typed up like that. What does “making pictures with words” mean?

  3. Love That Dog: Pages 25-27 January 24th And that’s where we saw The yellow dog Standing against the cage With his paws curled Around the wire And his long red tongue Hanging out And his big black eyes Looking a little sad And his long tail Wag-wag-waging As if he were saying Me meme! Choose me! and we did. We chose him! And inside we walked Down a long cement path Past cages With all kinds of Dogs Big and small Fat and skinny Some of them hiding in the corner But most of them Bark-bark-barking and Jumping up Against the wire cage As we walked past, as if they were saying “Me! Me! Choose me! I’m the one! We were going for a drive And my father said We won’t be gone long – You come too And so I went And we drove and drove Until we stopped at a Red brick building With a sign In blue letters ANIMAL PROTECTION SHELTER

  4. Love That Dog: Pages 25-27 January 24th And in the car He put his head Against my chest And wrapped his paws Around my arm As if he were saying Thank you thank you thank you! And the other dogs In the cages Get killed dead If nobody chooses them. 1. What techniques did Jack borrow from Robert Frost, Carlos Williams and William Blake? 2. What new information did we learn about Jack’s yellow dog? 3. How did you feel when we read “other dogs get killed dead if nobody chooses them?”

  5. Love That Dog: Pages 28-30 January 31th And maybe it would look good on yellow paper And maybe the title should be YOU COME TOO. February 7th Yes You can type up What I wrote About my yellow dog But leave off the part About the other dogs Getting killed dead Because that’s too sad And don’t put my name on it Please Yes It does look good On yellow paper And you forgot (again) To leave more space Between the lines Like I did when I wrote it But, that’s okay though! Why do you think Jack doesn’t want recognition for his poems?

  6. Love That Dog: Pages 31-34 February 15th In the street But only if a grown up Or the big kids Are out there, too, And they will shout CAR! If they see a car Coming down our street. At both ends of our street Are yellow signs that say Caution! Children at Play! But sometimes the cars pay No attention And speed down The road As if they are in a big hurry With many miles to go Before they sleep. And it has quiet music Most of the time WHISPMEOW SWISH My street is a THIN one With houses on both sides And my house is The white one With the red door. There is not too much traffic On my street– Not like in the middle of a city We play in yards and sometimes I like that poem we read today About street music In the city. My street is not in the middle Of the city So it doesn’t have that LOUD music Of horns and trucks CLASHFLASH SCREECH My street is on the edge Of a city

  8. “________ Music” Poem This restaurant: Always has busy noise Scuffling around the place Chatter of patrons Yelling of cooks in the kitchen V o c a b u l a r i e s Of BANGING CLASHING SCRAPING SIZZLING POPPING Friers and Grills Many Language Combinations As Background music Silently plays as Chaos Ensues A rock band Of different beats And Rhyhms Stuck in my head With this always noise Restaurant Music Restaurant Music Inspired by “Street Music” By: Mrs. Ritchie

  9. Love That Dog: Pages 35-37 February 21st February 26th That was so great Those poems you showed us today Where the words Make the shape Of the thing That the poem Is about--- Like the one about an apple That was shaped like an apple And the one about the house That was shaped like a house My brain was pop-pop-popping When I was looking at those poems I never knew a poet person Could do that funny Kind of thing I tried one of those poems That look like What’s it about

Maybe you will tell The anonymous tree poet That his or her tree poem Is really a poem Really really And a good poem, too. I was a little embarrassed When people said Things to me like Neat poem, Jack And How’d you think of that, Jack? And I really really like The one you put up About the tree That is shaped like a tree Not a fake-looking free But a real tree With straggly branches. But I want to know Who is the Anonymous poet In our class YesYou can type up The yellow dog poem That looks like a dog But this time Keep the spaces The same And maybe It would look Really really good On yellow paper Maybe you could put my name on it But only if you want to. Only if you think it Looks good enough.

  12. Love That Dog: Pages 42-45 March 14th where I can See it when I’m Lying down Maybe you could copy it tooand hang it on the wall In our class Where we can see it when we are sitting at our desksdoing stuff I sure loved that poem by Mr. Walter Dean MyersCalled “Love That Boy”. Because of two reasonsI liked it: One because my dad calls Me in the morning Just like that He calls “Hey There Son!” And also because when I had my yellow dog I loved that dog and would call him. Like this- I’d Say Hey There, Sky!(His name why Sky) That was the best bestBEST poem You read yesterday By Mr. Walter Dean Myersthe best bestBESTpoem ever. I am sorry I took the book homewithout asking. I only got one spot on it. That’s why the page is torn. I tried to get the spot out. I copied that BEST poem and hung it in my bedroomright over my bed

  14. Love That Dog: By Jack Love that dog, like a bird loves to fly I said love that dog like a bird loves to fly Love to call him in the morning love to call him “Hey there, Sky!”

  15. Love That Dog: Pages 46-48 March 22 And I’d call him Every morning every evening Hey there, Sky! And when us kidswere playing outsidekicking the ballhe’d chase after itand push it with his nosepush pushpushand getting slobberall over the ballbut no one caredbecause he was such a funny dogthat dog Sky That straggly furry Smiling Dog Sky. My Yellow dog followed me everywhereevery which way I turnedhe was there wagging his tailand slobber coming outof his mouthwhen he was smilingat me all the timeas if he was saying “thank you thank you thank you for choosing me” And jumping up on me his shaggy straggly pawson my chestlike he was trying to hug the insides right out of me. What poem is Jack imitating? What mood is this poem? Why do you think Jack is starting to write about his old pet?

  16. Love That Dog: Pages 49-54 March 27 • April 4 That sounds goodto my ears. Now no one will think I just copiedbecause I couldn’t think of my own words. They will know I was inspired by Mr. Walter Dean Myers. But don’t put it on the board yet, okay? Is Mr. Walter Dean Myers a live person? And if he isdo you think he could ever come To our city to our school to our class? I was very glad to Hear that Mr. Walter Dean Myers is not the sort of personwho would get mad At a boy For using some of his words. And thank you for typing up my secret poem the one that usesso many of Mr. Walter Dean Myer’swordsand I like what you put at the top: Inspired by Walter Dean Myers Yes, you can type up What I wrote about My dog Sky but don’t type up that other secret one I wrote-the one all folded upin the envelope with tape on it. That one uses too many of Mr. Walter Dean Myers’s words and maybe Mr. Dean Myer’s would get mad about that.

  17. Love That Dog: Pages 49-54 • April 12th April 4 (continued) • April 9th I don’t agree that Mr. Walter Dean Myers might like to hear from a boy who likes his poems. I think Mr. Walter Dean Myers would like to hear from a teacherwho uses big wordsand knows how To spell And to Type. And if he did we should hide my poemwith his words-his it real good- just in case he would get madabout that. No. No. No. No. No. NO ! I can’t do it. You should do it. You’re a teacher.

  18. Love That Dog: Pages 55-59 April 12th Dear Mr. Walter Dean Myers, You probably don’t want to hear from mebecause I am only a boy and not a teacher and I don’t use big wordsand you probably won’t even read thisor even if you do read ityou probably are way too busyto answer it Let alone to the thingI am going to ask you and I want you to know that’s okay

  19. Love That Dog: Pages 55-59 April 12th that’s okaybecause our teacher says writers are very veryveryverybusy trying to write their words and the phone is ringingand the fax is going and the bills need paying and sometimes they get sick (I hope you are not sick, Mr. Walter Dean Myers)or their family gets sickor their electricity goes off or the car needs fixingor they have to go to the grocery storeor do the laundry

  20. Love That Dog: Pages 55-59 April 12th Or clean messes. I don’t know how you find the timeto write your wordsif you have to do all that stuff and maybe you should get a helper So, what I am asking you is this:if you ever get the time to leave your houseand if you feel like visiting a schoolwhere there might be some kidswho like your poemswould you ever maybe think about maybe coming

  21. Love That Dog: Pages 55-59 April 12th Maybe to our schoolwhich is a clean place with mostly nicepeople in itand I think our teacher Miss. Stretchberrywould maybe even make brownies for you because she sometimes makes them for usI hope I haven’t too much stopped you from doing your Writing of wordsand fixing your carand getting groceries

  22. Love That Dog: Pages 55-59 April 12th And all that stuff- just to read this letter – which probably is taking you maybe fifteen minutesand in time you could’ve maybe writtena whole new poem or at least the startof one and so I am sorry For taking up your time and I understand if you can’t come to our clean schooland read some of your poems to usand let us see your face which I bet is a friendly face. My Name is Jack. Bye, Mr. Walter Dean Myers.
