Meta flux

It is a good morning to High Art.

Art is in a millennium’s flux.

It is a communication between Man, God, and Nature.

It is a communication flux.

This flux is a wave crashing on the shore.

This flux is the electricity on a neural synapse as you think of your lover’s flesh touching yours.

This flux never stops.

We attempt to capture flux in High Art.

Everything is temporary,

Summary: In this Skippyjon Jones adventure, Skippyjon decides he wants to go to school! His family makes fun of him and his mother forbids it but he decides to slip through the closet and go anyways! He has fun with chihuahuas all day and even encounters a bully. He goes to class and explores the library and checks out a book. Skippyjon overcomes the bully and returns home after a fun filled day at school!Personal Reaction:Skippyjon Jones books are so fun to read. They are also a little challenging to read with all of the creative words and silly songs. Children really get into it though because it is such an action packed and fun story to dive into. It would be a good book to read on the first day of school or even in the middle of the school year to cheer kids up and get them excited about school again! Extension Ideas:Have students write their own story about a wild and crazy day at school. Encourage students to use unique language and silly words. Set aside time for students to share their stories and even act out scenes for the class.

Just love, Love, LOVE Skippyjon Jones. In this adventure Skippyjon wants to go to school and little to nothing will stop him. Especially since everything he does is in his world of imagination. Like all the other books in the series the story follows the same theme so it's an easy read that students can say along with the teacher. This makes it an entertaining and interactive book for the classroom.

Another fun adventure with Skippyjon Jones. This time, when he goes into the closet, he is off to school. He learns that friends come in all sizes and to not jump to conclusions about people until you get to know them.
