I am linking up this week for Five-Minute Friday with Lisa-Jo Baker.
This week's FMF is: Red
Red marks on a piece of homework or test
Indicating wrong answers
Making me feel like a failure
Making me feel like I can't do well in the future
Even with help, I get frustrated
I become less confident in myself
with every red mark I see
Which makes me do as bad
On other assignments and tests
Now, I am getting less red marks
And I am feeling like a success
Like I can do well in the future
I am getting help, and not getting frustrated
I feel like I can do anything I want to
Because I have more support
And more confidence in myself
I do better on all other assignments and tests
And I feel happy about how things are going
Hi Diane!
ReplyDeleteThis is the first time I've joined in the fun 5 Minute Friday party that Lisa-Jo hosts. I found it hard to write anything that was cohesive in just five minutes. But, you did a great job! Funny thing is when I was thinking what to write about, I also thought of a red pen that edits, critiques and gives grades.
Hope you have a great weekend!
Hey, great minds think alike! Thank you for your comment, I really appreciate it! I love it when people like what I write. It makes me feel good!
DeleteGreat post! So thankful your red marks have decreased and your confidence has increased! Blessings!
