3rd class boys recently really enjoyed studying the poem – The Marrog by R.C. Scriven. The poem is about an alien called The Marrog, who has come to visit planet Earth.
Who is the Marrog?
“The Marrog is from the planet Mars and is seven foot tall! He has purple hair and a deep blue nose. His teeth are half yellow, half red and he has three eyes at the back of his head. The Marrog has five arms and can breathe green flames from his ears! He sits at the back of the class and nobody, nobody knows.” – Cathál
What might happen if there was an alien at the back of our 3rd class?
“Our whiteboard might fall, the ceiling would crack and Ms. Byrne would faint I suppose!” – Szymon and Finn
Who knows, maybe he was secretly at our open day and will someday join one of our classes in St. Peters!
Check back tomorrow for an audio of the boys reading the poem!
