1. Haiku Competition- A haiku is a poem that is made up of three lines.  The first line has 5 syllables, the second line has 7 syllables, and the last line is 5 syllables.  The poem does not need to rhyme.
The competition is to create a funny haiku...just make sure it is school appropriate--no personal put downs either.
Here are some quick examples from the internet:

Company coming?
And your house is a big mess?
Just put on lipstick.

Ask for opinions.
Mull it over. Then you can
Just do what you want.

Is everything wrong?
Are you the only one right?
Time to see a shrink
