I Dream To Be...

In class we read the book I Dream To Be, by Rebecca T. Clark.The story was about an African American girl who loves to dream.  She would share her dreams with her mother and her mother suggested that she start to write her dreams in a journal.  So today, we started to dream about what we would like to be.

Here are two of the dreams that I heard about in the classroom.  

I dream to be a teacher.  I imagine that I would wear a name tag.  I imagine that I would teach kids to sing songs.  As a teacher, I would love children.  Cora

I dream to be a police officer.  I imagine that I would put robbers in jail.  I imagine that I would pull cars over and give a ticket if they were speeding.  As a police officer I would keep people safe. Patrick

The children want to make a book out of their dreams.  When all have had a chance to dream, we will share the book.
