I remember a lot of things I learned. The best units were watermelons and apples because I love fruit. I loved sharks too. The best subject was birds because I loved birds and I still do! I learned about whales and my most favorite whale is the killer whale! I loved the unit on chocolate because I loved the story "Hot Fudge." I really liked Kid Pix because you got to draw things on it. I loved "Winter Wonderland because it is about winter and I like the snow! Penguins were the best! I liked the Rockhopper Penguin. I like the bat called Vampire Bat. I like the dinosaur called the Tyrranosaurus! I liked the brown bear because I love the color brown.

If I lived in the 1800's I would fidget a lot. Do you know what that means? I would get tanned. I am glad that I was not born in the 1800's. If I ate cold, yucky breakfast I would spit it out. I don't think that I want to live in the 1800's.

Today in class we did an experiment. First we colored the penguin with crayon only. Then we sprinkled water on the penguin and the cat. The penguin was dry. The cat was soaked. It ripped too! It was fun. Now I know how penguins are dry and cats get soaked.

The Magic Kente

One day a firefighter found a kente. When he got home he gave it to his daughter. His daughter said, "Thank you." He said, "You can use it for your doll." The girl put it on her doll. The doll came alive. The girl went running out of the house. And they lived happily ever after.

One day I went for a swim. Then I saw a shark. The shark jumped out of the water and said "Hi" and I said "Hi" back and he went away.

I am thankful for the money we have because we buy stuff. I am thankful for my house because my house gives me shelter. I am thankful for my parents because they keep me safe. I am thankful for my computer because my computer is good to play with. I am thankful for my sister because she plays with me. I am thankful for my friend John because I play with him a lot!!!

Dear Kim,
I heard that you are afraid of a funnelweb spider! Spiders don't hurt. They eat insects. Spiders don't harm you.

Sometimes I Feel

Sometimes I feel like a bear
Starved every day
Angry like a monster
Wishing that I can eat.
