Perry the Pencil

Hi, I'm Perry. I'm a pencil, a number 2 pencil, the best pencil there is. I help Erik write all his homework. My brother, Pauly, is at school. He helps Erik write all his school work. I like it when I get sharpened. It makes me feel brand new. I do not like it when I am erased.

My Mom

My mom is so nice.  She cares about my family (my dad, my aunt, and my nana).  She is pretty- very, very pretty! 

My mom is cool to me.  She plays with me all the time.  We like to play games outside, like catch.  Sometimes we play video games.  Isn’t that cool? 

I love my mom and she loves me too!

Field Day

Field Day had finally come around. The Big Squeeze was up and it was fun. Next was the 50 Yard Dash. It was so easy. I liked this one.

At Wet n' Wild you had to put a leaking bottle full of water over your head. I like this one too.

Spring Break

On Good Friday I went to UNLV to see and touch a lizard.  I saw a snake get fed a little mouse.  Then me, my mom and my dad went to the Springs Preserve.  I learned how everything used to be in the water.  I saw more lizards.

Field Trip Idea

Dear Miss Powell,

I think it would be nice to go to the Springs Preserves for our field trip.  It would teach us about Nevada’s history.  The Springs is the birthplace of Nevada.  At the Springs they have animals, reptiles, plants, and trees that are native to our area.  I think we would have a ton of fun and learn a lot!  Can we? Can we? Can we?  Please, please, can we? Let’s take a vote.

Your Student,
Erik

Firefighter Garland

Firefighter Garland told us to have sprinklers and fire alarms.  He told us about Station 11 on Las Vegas Blvd.  He told us about the shifts that he works.

Erik's Bedroom

The theme of my bedroom is Spiderman.  I have Spiderman sheets, pillows, bedspread, lamp, shelves, and posters.  It’s even painted Spiderman blue. 

I have my own TV, DVD, VCR, and computer desk for my computer.  I have my own phone and a laptop.  We won’t talk about my toy room.  There’s too much to talk about.

Mrs. Nevada's Visit

For Reading Week Mrs. Nevada came in.  She made us laugh a lot.  She is very, very, very pretty. 

I enjoyed the book she read very much.  I like Mrs. Nevada's ponytails.  The story she read was funny and cool.

Mrs. Nevada's crown was very pretty.  I loved the diamonds.  It sparkled a lot.

John

John came in yesterday and read "The Adventures of Taxi Dog" and "Where the Wild Things Are".  I liked "The Adventures of Taxi Dog" because it had a nice story.  I did not like "Where the Wild Things Are" because it was a little bit boring.

I learned that when John is not working at Ford Country he is in a band.  He can play the bass guitar and the piano but not at the same time.

I wonder if John has family here in Las Vegas or are they in New York.  I want to know if he has a girl friend.

Harry the Snowflake

Hi!  My name is Harry and I'm a snowflake.  I like the cold.  If I get warm I melt.  It takes millions of my friends and I to make a snowman. 

I have a lot of fun in the winter but eventually the spring will come and I must say my good-byes.

Ford Edge

I'm a new car.  My name is Spike.  I used to live at Ford Country.  John sold me. 

I have a Sync system and a navigation system too!  I do not like it when I am parked.  I have 20 inch wheels and love to go fast!

Thanksgiving Traditions

We wake up in the morning and my mother makes brunch.  I watch the "Macy's Day Parade".  We love to watch the floats and the balloons.  My family really enjoys it because they are from New York City.  My Auntie loves it the best because at the end of the parade she yells "Hi Santa!"  After that my dad, my Auntie and I watch the dog show.  My mother and my Nana prepare everything for our delicious Thanksgiving meal.  Before dinner we toast each other and wish us a "Happy Thanksgiving".

On Friday in our classroom Mark's mom came to talk about her heritage.  I think it is nice that Mark's mom came in to talk about her heritage.

Bowling

Two weeks ago at the South Point Lanes, my whole family and my friend Matt all went bowling for fun.  I beat my Dad and my Mom.  My aunt lost almost every game.  We were having so much fun that we lost track of time and made Matt late for his family dinner.

Me and Matt, Logan, and Bryce, and Kalob did the O.R.E.O. Challenge.  We stacked Oreos on a piece of paper.  We counted them.  I did it two times and I did 11 and 19.  We got to eat some.

Get Up and Go!

Brushing my teeth is a great way to keep them from rotting. I brush my teeth to keep my breath fresh.

I like to look neat. It is good to look your best.

Eating breakfast is the most important meal of the day. It gives me energy.
