New news

Sorry I haven't been here on a while. I've just been busy since I started 4th grade!!! I promise I'll write on here more often.

Well, I do have some great news. The first one I already told you about. I started 4th grade!!! And guess what? I have the same teacher from last year because our 4th grade teacher moved to C track. So Mr.Allen is our new 4th grade teacher and Mr. Rushmore is our new 3rd grade teacher. Then, we got a new 2nd grade teacher. Her name is Mrs. Morton. So now, I get the same teacher I had for 3rd grade.
Some of the other news I have is that I am one of the kids in my class that made it to Student Council. I made it and so did Jordan J. It's so awesome! My first meeting is on November 11th.
Also, I am one of the seven kids that passed the spelling bee test. If you pass that test, you move on to the oral test. And if you past the oral test, you get to go to the actual spelling bee. I hope I can go to the actual spelling bee.
The last bit of awesome news is that today is Halloween(I bet you already knew that though!)! I am going to be a bumblebee this year. I can't wait to start bringing in the candy! And again, I promise I will write on here more often.
Bye!!

down in my notebook.

and
aching
and
aching
with ideas for my writing.

I am a writer who
is always wondering what is
happening at home.

I am a writer who
has a

WILD

imagination for writing!

I am a writer who
sits at my desk
and
writes
and
writes
and
writes
all my
flowing ideas.

I am a writer who
is quiet and shy.

I am a writer who
watches my writing
gently
drift
down
the page.

I am a writer who
likes to write about seasons.

I am a writer who
is
adding
and
subtracting
words
like in math.

I am a writer who
is sometimes
thristy for ideas
and

I am a writer who
watches for ideas when it is
not time to write.

I am a writer who
is exploding when
writing time is done.

I am a writer who
who is always
thinking
and
thinking
and

Grade 2

From a pencil lead to my first F2

I was playing with some of my friends, having fun as usaul ,until chase pointed out some funnel clouds. I raced inside,up the stairs and into the bathroom where mom and dad were. My mom went outside and told me to get her camera. I got my mom's camera and brought it to her. We went down to Mr.Ken's and Mrs. Tanya's driveway. At first it looked like a pencil lead,then it got bigger and bigger,and it got pretty big. It reformed a couple of times, then went up and we went inside. Then it rained and hailed,the hail was as big as a nickel. Then two beatifull raibows ended my first F2.

Second Grade!!

I finished first grade on June 20th 2008! I am zapping to second grade because I have read thousands of chapter books, memorized hundreds of facts, and got to help out a few kids.
