Art Snow Day Activity
Read and illustrate one of the following poems by Shel Silverstien:

Snowball
I made myself a snowball As perfect as could be.
I thought I’d keep it as a pet And let it sleep with me.
I made it some pajamas And a pillow for its head.
Then last night it ran away, But first it wet the bed.

Sick
“I cannot go to school today,”
Said little Peggy Ann McKay.
“I have the measles and the mumps,
A gash, a rash, and purple bumps.
My mouth is wet, my throat is dry,
I’m going blind in my right eye.
My tonsils are as big as rocks,
I’ve counted sixteen chicken pox
And there’s one more-that’s seventeen,
And don’t you think my face looks green?
My leg is cut, my eyes are blue. It might be instamatic flu.
I cough I sneeze and gasp and choke,
I’m sure that my left leg is broke.
My hip hurts when I move my chin,
My belly button is caving in, My back is wrenched;
my ankle’s sprained, My ‘pendix pains each time it rains.
My nose is cold, my toes are numb, I have a sliver in my thumb.
My neck is stiff, my spine is weak, I hardly whisper when I speak.
My tongue is filling up my mouth,
I think my hair is falling out. My elbow’s bent, my spine ain’t straight,
My temperature is one-o-eight. My brain is shrunk, I cannot hear,
There is a hole inside my ear. I have a hangnail, and my heart is
What? What’s that? What’s that you say?
You say today is … Saturday? G’bye, I’m going out to play!”
