September Family Problem

Since the month of September is slipping away from me, I still wanted to post a family problem. This activity is due by Friday, October 1st for 5 bonus points or 5 chance tickets. If you have more than one middle schooler, you only have to do one activity for the whole family.


THE PROBLEM
The first day of autumn is on the 23rd of this month. I encourage you as a family to write a senses poem. Each line will be either some things you see, smell, taste, feel, or hear during the autumn season. The challenge is that each member must have their own line in the poem for each sense.


PARTIAL EXAMPLE
Mom sees the geese getting ready for their winter flight.
Dad sees the football games on Saturday nights.
I see the trees as they lose their leaves.
Mom hears the rustling of the leaves as they blow down the street.
Dad hears the grill sizzling the burgers for dinner.
I hear the rain pour down outside.
...This is the beginning. I would need to complete the poem with the senses of taste, smell, and feel as well.


NOTE: Decorative poems will earn an extra bonus point or chance ticket.
