Computer Lab

We made the cover for our writing book. We typed Super September. We chose the headline form we wanted. There were lots of different styles to choose. We made a headline from Super September. We had to put our first and last name on it. We typed the word Writing. We put 2 pictures on the page. We printed it out when we finished. We had to put it in a special safe spot. After we finished, we played KidPix. On KidPix you get to make stuff and use different tools. It was a fun time at the computer lab because we got to see different headlines in different colors. We learn lots of stuff on the computer.

P.E.

After we do our exercises, we go to different stations. We sometimes run on the track. Next week we will run 5 minutes on the track. We have to do pull-ups and make our chin above the bar. To pass the test, we have to do one pull-up. We have to do 33 sit-ups to pass the Fitness Test. We do sit and reach. When we do sit and reach, someone holds our knees. We have to reach 25 or more to pass. We run around the gym. Everyone does shuttle run. Sometimes we run around and play on the tennis court. In the tennis court we play kick ball. Everyone does push-ups. Gym is awesome.

Apple Smiles

Today we had apple smiles for a snack. Apple smiles have marshmallows in them. They were awesome and very good. We used apples, marshmallows, and peanut butter. We also needed a plastic knife and napkin. We shared the plastic knives. We copied a recipe for them so we could make them. Then we followed the directions. It was a little messy. We made them by ourselves. We ate them. It was sticky and fun to make apple smiles. We had peanut butter in lots of places. If you had leftovers, you could eat them. You can make them at home. We can share them with our family.
