Our Countries by Students in Forest Knolls Elementary
School

El Salvador
by Adriana Coto, Forest Knolls E.S.
- El Salvador,
- It is a very small country,
- But with many beautiful places
- And rich food I am craving
- Like pupusas with cream.
- El Salvador,
- You can find much traditional food
- Like corn and chicken tamales,
- And tamales with refried beans.
- El Salvador
- If you go to camp
- Carry a hammock for relaxation
- And have a drink of coconut
- It feels very fine.
- El Salvador,
- You show off your beautiful beaches
- With your big waves big waves
- And we leave the sea
- And go to eat a delicious plate
- Of fish with a soda.
- El Salvador
Mexico
by Cesar Ruiz, Forest Knolls E.S.
- Mexico the land of water and the rain and dirt...
- Mexico the taste of rice and water and fish...
- Mexico the touch of cars and water and houses...
- Mexico the sight of Bunna and my dad and my mom...
- It is beautiful to have a good breakfast
El Salvador
by Nancy Granados, Forest Knolls E.S.
- El Salvador,
- Red chicken's sound in the night...
- The sound of birds calling to each other...
- The sound of the ocean wind.
- El Salvador,
- The taste of green mangos and lemon...
- The taste of pizza and pepperoni...
- The taste of pupusas with cheese.
- El Salvador,
- The feel of the sand on my feet...
- The feel of mangoes in my hands...
- The feel of the sun on my back.
- El Salvador,
- The sight of the grey sand under the blue water...
- The sight of the red fish swimming on the blue ocean...
- The sight of the black cow running on the dusty road.
- El Salvador,
- The smell of the new shirts...
- The smell of the green mangoes...
- The smell of the red flower.
-
-
- Sitting with my mother.
- We eat hot tortillas and fresh cheese
- And beans and hot chocolate.
- El Salvador,
- It is fine to go at the end of the week
- To a restaurant to eat
- A plate of shrimp with rice
- Or a bowl of delicious conch cocktail.
