Cosmic Bowling

In P.E. we did some thing called cosmic bowling. It is where the lane sides (for bowling) are lit up by Christmas lights. I played different bowling games like fast bowling, it is were you have one pin set up and you have a partner, you and you're partner take turns bowling and running between each time you bowl. Another game I played is king and queen bowling. It is were you cheer each other a lot, that is the fun part! You get to jump up and encourage your partner while he is bowling. That is were you set up as many pins as you want, up to ten and then you run toward them and slide and knock all the pins down. The sad thing about that game is we don't get prizes. We also can win prizes.

Woodland Park Zoo


Has your class ever been too the Woodland Park Zoo? My class has, and it is Super fun. There are tigers, lions, bears, apes, gorillas, bats, snakes, flamingos, frogs, and A LOT more. My favorite animal was the hippo. They were really funny. But my mom did NOT like the snake exhibits. I liked them but they weren’t my favorite. But my mom still went through the reptile house. Only because she had to with the whole group, so maybe someday your class will go to the Woodland Park Zoo too.

P.S there will be penguins there this May!!!!!!!!!!!

Class webpage

Have you ever been on our class webpage? It has a photo gallery, along with all sorts of other stuff. Today I downloaded some more pictures on the photo gallery. (You'll have to go see them!) It was my first time to post pictures on the photo gallery. We currently have 10 different picture galleries. Posting pictures on the website is fun. You have to take pictures on the camera, plug in the camera to the computer, download the pictures you want, go into Microsoft Front Page, make a new page, put in the pictures, than your pictures are on the webpage.
If you want to see the pictures, just go to our classroom homepage and click photo gallery.

What is the Super Star Student?

The Super Star Sutdent is our class V.I.P. Everyone gets a chance to be the V.I.P. If you're the V.I.P then you get to put up photos and words that tell about yourself on the star student board. Also, if you're the V.I.P then you are the class' line leader, and you get a STUFFED TONY THE TIGER that is holding a sign that says "Hooray for you!" attached to a stick that says "VIP" that goes on you desk.

Second Grade Fun

WASL Testing for the 2nd graders

WASL testing was 4/15/09, 4/17/09, 4/20/09, and 4/21/09 and while 3rd graders were testing the 2nd graders did….ALL SORTS OF FUN STUFF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! On the first day of testing we saw what colors go into pens. Did you know that black pens are not just black? It is lots of colors mixed together! On the 2nd day we made things that work by wind moving it. We made airplanes, copters, ring flyers, pinwheels, and balloon rockets. The 3rd day we made things out of gum drops, tooth picks, and these things called magic noodles. Those things were bridges, towers, pyramids, and even a man who likes to drink Coca Cola and lives with his angry wife in a gumdrop house.[she is angry because he invited a friend without permission.] On the last day we put on a play for the 3rd graders called treasure hunters. It’s about 4 alien friends trying to find some treasure, 2 shopping mall guards trying to move there bus and 1 book with the wrong definitions. It was a lot of fun!

WASL survivors

The WASL is so F-U-N, FUN! The last day we made necklaces that said: I'm a survivor, I'm gonna make it, I will survive' Keep on surviving. Before we started the WASL we each got a yellow carrel so we had a private workspace. We also got gum, a no. 2 pencil, and smarties. We had to write our name on the front. Then we started WASLing. The WASL is a bunch of questions. There are four types of WASL tests: Math, Reading, Writing, and Science. We only did Math and Reading. Our break time is 10:25 to 10:45, which is time for recess. At break time we get to eat our snacks and go in the back, where our library is. If you're finished with your WASL test early you should stay at your desk and read your AR book. There are two types of questions: multiple choice questions and short answer questions. The Math tests are just questions, questions, questions. The Reading test you have to read something before you answer the questions.

WE ARE WASL SURVIVORS!
