Valentines: Eraser Stamps & Hallmark Poems

 


Uh! I love these!
They are relatively easy to carve and simple to stamp with a good, old ink pad. Draw any sketch in pencil then flip and transfer onto a clean eraser. Carve the bits out that you do not want inked. And remember, write backwards!

The kids attempted their second round of Pet Peeve Poetry, where they use similes (using 'like' and 'as') to compare a subject to things that are annoying, irritating, difficult and disgusting (synonyms.)

Love is as annoying as melting ice cream

as irritating as not being able to find an eraser

as difficult as finding a specific word in the dictionary

as disgusting as kissing

as enraging as your brother not listening to you

as crazy as this poem.

~Miss C

Fairytales are as provoking as a jab

as disturbing as love

as irritating as pestering siblings

as bothersome as regrets about a big choice

as difficult as a Rubix cube

as infuriating as a racoon you can't find.

~Miss O
