100 days of School

I have 100 books. I would like 100 puzzles. I wouldn't like 100 brothers. Having 100 baby brothers or sisters could really be a problem because they could make a gigantic mess. In 100 years I would like to be in heaven. In 100 years the world will be very cool. The strangest thing will be earthquakes. I can lift 100 giraffes. If I had 100 dollars I would spend it on a lot of toys. I wish I had 100 pieces of legos. Then I would build a gigantic lego house. We are now going to plan some of our blogs and then do a math puzzle. Then we will put puzzles and legos together.

Blogging

The students in our class may volunteer to write a blog by themselves. They may work with one or two partners. They will choose their partner or partners and choose what they want to write. They will write about something that happens at school. They will pick the date that it will be written in our blog. They will need to write about 7 good sentences. Make sure you read our blogs to see who our student bloggers will be. Have a good day.

Weekend Plans

Tomorrow is the weekend. Some people are going to sleep overs. There's a birthday party. Some people may be going to their dad's or grandma's in Omaha. A couple of people may have friends over. One of us might go on a hunting trip with their father and brothers. Some of us might be helping people do chores. Tomorrow some people may go to Cedar Rapids and play hockey. That same person's mom will come down to their house. If it's warm tomorrow, some may put on their warm clothes and go sledding. Some of us may have swimming lessons at the YMCA. Others may build things out of wood. One person will go ice fishing with their dad, uncle and cousins. Relatives may also be visiting. One person is going to call a cousin to say happy birthday. Some people may be writing a story and a song. Have a "jammin" January.

Burr

It is cold outside. Lately it has been really freezing outside. The title really explains the weather. The low was 18 degrees below zero. Make sure you wear coats, snow pants, snow boots, gloves, hats, and scarves. Hopefully no one has frost bite. It's probably not a good idea to go sledding when it is this cold. We hope you get bundled up for this weather. Outside on a thermometer it said it was about minus 14 or 15. Last night it was the coldest day of 2008. Some people thought it was so cold out that they didn't want to go outside. Some people can't believe that it would be like summer in Texas when it is so cold here. It would be good weather to be a popsicle. Have a snowy day. We all hope we don't get frozen.

It's Friday

It's Friday and I hope you have a good day. Tomorrow is the weekend. Some people may have friends over on the weekend and maybe a sleepover. We are all glad that it's Saturday tomorrow. Some people are glad that it is Friday so we can sleep in on Saturday. We get a 3 day vacation because the teachers have a meeting on Monday. There will be football on the weekend. Some people have to go to CCD and church. On Monday it is Martin Luther King's birthday. Some people may be going to their grandma's house or the boy's high school basketball game. A little bit before time for blogging we checked out books. On Friday we have homework. Some people are going to play on the weekend in the snow and make forts. Have a great weekend!!!!!

Physical Education

Physical education is another name for gym. We played Poison Ball and we were sweaty. Some of us were so hot we thought we were in a desert. Some people like Poison Ball and some don't. We had a lot of points in Poison Ball. We played catch the leader. We did cals. We do lots of things in gym. Most of us worked our hardest in gym. Sometimes we play basketball with a team of 3 or 4 people. One person got hurt in gym and bent their thumb. We ran for a very long time. Some people had to run 4 laps. It's really fun playing Poison Ball in gym. If we don't play catch the leader, we run from 3 to 5 minutes. It was so much fun in gym. Have an icy day.

Music Program

On Monday night we had our music program. That was last night. Mrs. Dreyer's, Mrs. Dreher's, and Mrs. Riggs' classes were the first one on stage. The other 3 classes went after us. They were Mrs. Daugherty's, Mrs. Garrett's, and Mrs. Ambrose's classes. Ms. Brown said we did a terrific job. Ms. Brown said that we could see our program on tape. Mrs. Dickerson taped the program so we can see it some time. Some parents video taped us. Many people wore their best clothes. Everyone looked good for the program. We sang some neat songs. We all sang our best. I hoped that all the parents thought we did a good job. At the next concert we hope that the audience doesn't shout so loudly when we are singing our best. We hope they encourage us before we perform, not when we are on the stage singing. It was fun. Have a good day.
