Our Store

We went shopping at our school store. We earned currency by doing our work. This is not real money. The store was really cool. There were lots of cool things. Jacob bought a slinky. Joe purchased a puzzle. We shopped to buy things. Matt bought a slinky with his money. Some people were able to buy more than one thing. Some things cost lots of our money. If we had enough money, we could buy several things. Genevieve bought a gator aide. The store had games and toys. There was a lot to choose from at the store. Brendan bought a bowling game. Mason bought a skateboard toy. There were some things that I wanted, but couldn't get them. Lane bought a set of jacks.

Safe Side Adult

Today we watched a video on being SAFE. These are some important things to remember. Never talk to an adult that you do not know. Do not talk to strangers. Never leave your adult. Yell for Mom and Dad. Ask your mom and dad for 3 people that you can go with. If a stranger comes too close to you, yell this is not my mom or dad. Even it looks safe, it might not be safe. Don't answer the door if it's a don't know. Ask a parent before you leave with an adult. Don't tell strangers your name. Make sure you have your 3 safety people. Always have an adult with you. If a stranger comes up to you, run away. Don't try anything dangerous.

The museum was awesome. The black jet is cool that was in the front. It was the favorite of lots of boys and girls. It was really cool looking at the planes at the museum. There were two huge planes that we liked. We like the part when the teachers went on the trainer. We liked the airplanes. A favorite was one of the US Air Force planes. We saw lots of jets. Another favorite part was the pod racer. Riding the escalator was fun. The planetarium was fun to look in at the stars. Looking at the constellations was also a best part and very interesting. Riding on the training machine was fun.
