SUMMER FUN!

Solving the Question?

How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop? The world may never know.

That’s now not true! I got a tootsie pop on 6/10/09 and Ms. T told us to count how many licks it took to get to the center of the tootsie pop. We didn’t have to(She was just kidding), but I did. I kept on licking my tootsie pop. Finally, I got the number: 1,430 licks. So it takes about 1,430 licks to get to the center of a tootsie pop, but I didn’t stop there. I kept on licking until the entire tootsie pop was gone. You’ll be surprised about this: It takes about 1,985 licks to eat a tootsie pop. Wow! Please note: I took small licks!

The Last Fire Drill

Yesterday was the last fire drill this year. We were about to do writing but suddenly the fire alarm went off. We went outside, and when we got under the covered area we heard distant sirens. A couple minutes later, a fire truck parked by the school. Mr. Poage had said they had a surprise for us, and when the fire drill was over, a fire man got out of the truck and came over by the covered area. He had a hose and started spraying water straight in the air. Then the fire truck started spraying water all over the playground. Everybody ran under were the most water was falling. Every few minutes the guy on top of the fire truck jerked the hose to a different spot. When that happened, everybody would run as fast as they could toward where the water was. Eventually they turned off the water, and I was soaked. I thought it was a lot of fun.
