Reading Celebration Day!

Thank you so much to all of the parents who read, donated food for our read and feed and donated story bit items! We had so much fun today and we couldn't have done it without all of you! I am sorry I couldn't get everyone in to read today. I do feel very blessed to have so many parents that are willing to come in and read though:) 

Here are a few pictures from our day!

I hope all of you have a safe, relaxing and enjoyable spring break!

                        Here is Isaac! Check out his handwriting! Wow!




We were going to Lego Land. WE had to pay. It was cold. "Brrr," I whispered.  

We went to a cool lego city. We saw an ambulance crash into a light pole and put a strap on. Then we got the last game ride.

We built lego cars. Boom! My car blew up so I built a new car. I dropped it down the high road.

We went to the Lego Land lego place with the legos. Then we went to the Legos there. We went to play. 

Then put the legos in the car and we went to grandmas and grandpas. We drive and drive. We got there and had a drink.

It was snack break and I was done with my snack. Mrs. Anderson was calling names to go bowling! "I hope I get picked."





First, she mixed the tickets for a long, long, long, long, long time. Then she called 9 names. Andrew got to pick the tenth one. It was...

Me! "Yippee" I was so, so , so happy. I hope my brother got picked, so I could play with him. 

Mrs. Anderson gave me a paper for mom and dad to sing and bring to class on Monday or you won't go. 
I put it in my mailbox and I could not stop smiling. I was so happy! "Yay"

Aurek is a first grader. His family is his brother Keller, mom and dad and he really, really, really, likes sports reading and writing.

It was the first day of school. I went in the first grade classroom. I was with my mom at school. I was really nervous and happy too. "This was the best day ever." I whispered to myself.

Writer's Spotlight on...Cody!


First, I went to the bowling alley on Saturday. "The bowling alley was big." Carlie giggled. And my dad yelled, "Carlie quit it!."

Next, I got shoes and went to the arcade and played some games and they were fun. "These games are awesome," I grinned. 

Then, we came back and it was ready and we ate a shake and started to play. I got a strike on my first try and my mom and dad replied, "Good Job."

Then, we were done and we played more games and got prizes and I got a 3ds and ipod and a new basketball because mine broke. And the games I got on the i pod were there's minecraft, skylander, swamp frog, sonic adventure. 

Last, we ate pizza and went home and went to bed and went home and went to bed an my mom said I could play on my ipod for a little while and I only had time to games and play one game. "And that game was fun," I replied.
