Okay, so you sit down to do your homework. You start writing your name at the top pf the page when OUCH! Your homework sprouts fangs and claws and begins chasing you! No, seriously, homework CAN be hazardous to your health. Here are some ways how……………
- You leave your homework inside just as your mom’s car is pulling out of the driveway. You race inside to grab it and on your way out, you trip and sprain your ankle
- Tall stacks of homework left on the table are likely to topple, especially when you’re around. OUCH, especially if you have heavy textbooks
- Your cat decides that your notebook with your half-finished algebra homework in it would make a good bed. you get clawed as you shoo her away
- On your way to school, some idiot with no sense of humor thinks that it would be funny to steal you homework and drop it in a puddle. You get several bruises fending him off
- A mouse comes out of the attic and starts nibbling on your homework. You come home later only to find that your homework has a lot of curious nibbles on it, which have obliterated half of your answers. You stay up late that night to redo it and get a hand cramp that stays for days. You also get a total of exactly 2 hours of sleep
- Your little brother thinks that it would be a funny practical joke to hide your homework. You spend the rest of the day searching for it. When you finally find it in the refrigerator 5 hours later, you have a bunch of stress induced gray hairs
- Your dad offers to buy your homework from you with his credit card. You accept, and you worry for the rest of the day whether you should have charged him more for it.
- Last of all, little green men from mars come and steal your homework as an example of earthling culture! (Just kidding!)

OMG. I hope gray hairs are not hazardous to your health!! I’m in trouble if they are!!!!!!!!!!!!
lol.
this was fun to read. One improvement: periods at the ends of your sentences. It’s okay to leave them off when you’ve got a list of short phrases, but these are fully formed sentences and cry out for periods! Wah!!
love your bullets!
Keri,
My Son and I laughed all the way through your homework piece. He walked in and saw the kitty picture and loved it. He is a big cat fan. Keep up the good work. Very creative!
