Straighten your clothes and comb your hair. Wipe the goobers off your face.

Once again, Picture Day has come back to this place.

Check your teeth for breakfast bits. Make sure all is buttoned and zipped.

Tie your shoes - many years ago, I didn't and I tripped.

When I fell, I hit my nose. Blood was everywhere!

I tore my shirt. I was a mess (except, of course, my hair!)

I was quite a picture. But you will all look great.

Get your clothing set just right and smile for your portrait.

SMILE? Now that's a problem. How can I help out?

What can I do to make you grin and make sure you don't pout?

What would make you happy and make your face just glow?

How can I put a smile on your face? Oh, I think you know . . .

Grammar Giggles will do the trick! (It's right there in its name)

Morning Math will help too. If you don't smile, that's a shame.

Because everyone here has a terrific smile. I see it when you play.

And I see it about 2:45 - when you're leaving for the day!
