PS 325 Grass Kickers Cheer
I kick the ball up in the air sometimes,
Like a Lego, and a Nintendo.
We came to
try, try, try, try.
Not to die tomorrow
night, night, night, night.
So let’s not get into a
fight, fight, fight, fight.
We’re going to make this
tight, tight, tight, tight.
We are rappers so we
write, write, write, write.
5th Grade
Alberto "Street Dude" Navarette
I’m good at dodge ball.
When they see me come,
they start to run
and some just crawl.
Because I am big and they are small.
When they throw the ball,
They throw it low.
I’m not lame,
Cause I’m in the hall of fame.
When others lose they start to wane.
I’m intelligent cause I have a brain.
"Z-Man" Zimani Adams
Soccer is my favorite sport.
We kick it up and down the court.
We keep it so fresh on the microphone.
We like no interruptions when the game is on.
I’m not small. I’m very tall.
I sometimes fall, so my parents I call.
When I play in the game I sometimes feel shame,
But I really don't blame, cause I take responsibility for who I am.
I go to the goal. I have a lot of soul.
I use team work. I lead the team,
When we come out we are bravely seen.
PS 192, they really rock,
When they came out they gave me a shock.
They show teamwork on the field,
and their goalie is a human shield!
They have the kicks that make me sick.
They make good passes, but they don't pass gasses.
They play like Heather, light as a feather.
And... they always play together!
Our coaches say we’re a team and we understand,
And we run out there like we are a band.
Our coaches say, “I know we can do it.”
Then we say, “There’s nothing to it!”
Our coaches wonder if we’re a team,
They stop in the hallway and wonder and dream.
We are a team and we can do more.
I’ll tell you why because we’re America SCORES!
4th Grade
Xavier "X-Man" Martinez
I like playing Mindcraft.
I never get caught in the trap.
A creeper is here.
I have no fear.
I am going to tell the creeper,
He is a weeper.
"Master" Marc Mendoza
Are you a gangster?
If you are, you will turn in to a hamster.
Not me, because I am a master.
Every day I run faster.
Players are in the hall of fame.
But they all have the same name.
Except one, his name is Marc,
Mark the shark.
He likes snacks.
He never smacks.
His mother said “If you smack, then no snack!”
"Almazing" Almedin Muslim
I have a pet monkey.
His name is Funky.
I say he’s creepy,
My friends say he’s freaky.
I have a friend Nick,
And he doesn’t flick.
I have a an eye
that makes me fly.
When I fall I die.
When I play the flute,
I wear cool suits.
I learned history,
Then I found a mystery.
I have another friend named Mary
That has a friend named Larry.
Rappin' Richard C.
I have a flower.
It looks like a tower.
Cause it just took shower.
I got a sister.
She has a blister.
She was born in a twister.
I live in a barn.
My cousin said darn.
Cause his cat broke his yarn.

Jairo "Mr. Cruz" Cruz
You will say why when you are young.
Then you will run.
A bat chases a cat.
They stay awake at night.
That’s when they strike.
That’s when I write.
I wish I was Christ.
Kenneth R.
My name is Kenneth.
I like tricks and I get new mitts,
And my dog licks,
And it flicks ticks,
And my clock clicks,
And my friends play on the Knicks,
And they don’t throw bricks.
Stefano B.
I went to Nike
Then I went to hike.
I am afraid of heights,
I went to a fight.
I joke and I drink coke
But I don’t smoke, and I soak.
My friend has a brain,
And he needs a train,
to take a stain,
and then it rains.
I like to tag.
I run to the flag.
I take the bag,
To make a gag.
Joseph D.
Today my name
is Ray Ray.
I feel very happy.
I pretend to be a Daddy.
I heard my baby cousin cry.
I found a fly next to her eye.
Frandy G.
I play soccer.
I have a locker.
My friend has a brain.
He needs to train.
I seek a beak.
I like technique.
I rap like a freak.
I like beats.
I want to take a seat.
I am in a tower,
Taking a shower.
Flamur K.
We are the tigers and we are the best.
We rock the city and we are better than the rest.
I keep running
Until I get slow.
Until a car catches me,
Then I run some more.
But it won’t catch me,
Because I am Flamur.
Bryant V.
A zombie is a knocker.
A knocker is a maucher,
And a zombie is a stalker.
Jonas L.
Inside of me, inside of me,
I hear music.
I like the beat.
It rocks my feet.
Music rocks,
But before it pops,
Be prepared with socks.
But if you have a fox,
Give it a treat with some meat,
Then it will take a seat.
You can do a cheer,
But never sip a beer.
I’m good at rapping.
I caught my manager slapping.
The crowd started clapping.
He thinks he is made of jokes.
That’s when I called my folks,
Who don’t smoke,
They write notes.
Jaden P.
I am a master at video games.
My arms are full of veins.
My head is full of brains.
I don’t like to be the same.
I want to change my name,
To something more insane.
