Welcome back! This month our blog features some writing from each student! Each of their blurbs describes something they enjoyed in school during the month of December. They are also looking ahead into 2013 and making some goals for themselves! Read on!!!
Aadarsh
In December I remember when I was Jake’s Headliner Helper. It was fun always talking to Jake and calling the teams to get snack.
Stepping into 2013 on the right foot, I’m going to write neater. I’ll do this by writing more slowly.
Abby
In December I remember getting my volleyball team. I was so excited to be on the Ireland Platypuses. I was with all my friends. We worked really well together!
Alyssa
In December I remember reading George Brown, Class Clown. I liked it because George had tried to get a skunk hair for a scavenger hunt and he got sprayed. He had to take several tomato juice baths. I thought that was very funny! His mom even made him ride his bike behind the car because he was so stinky! That is why I liked George Brown, Class Clown.
Stepping into 2013 on the right foot, I will work harder in math and try to get the problem right. I will do this by practicing multiplication and division facts. I will try to practice mostly the facts I am having trouble with.
Avi
In December I remember getting rained on in science when we learned about the water cycle. I thought it was weird because it’s not every day you get rained on in science!
Stepping into 2013 on the right foot, I want to be more organized. I want to organize my desk and put my papers in the right folders.
