My Favorite Pair of Shoes... by Emmett

     My favorite pair of shoes are my New Balance sneakers.  They are mostly gray with an orange band that goes all the way around the sneakers.  The bottom is mostly orange with black outlining.  There is an N that is outlined in orange on the side.  Also, there is gray mesh above the toes and along the side.  My orange New Balance sneakers are my favorite because they let me run very fast.

Sundae by Calvin

     My favorite type of sundae is a Nivlac sundae.  It is mint chocolate chip with gummy bears, cookies 'n cream, whipped cream and peanut butter cups with a waffle cone on top.  I like it because it is delicious.  Let me explain;  I have just invented it.  I like mint chocolate chip, but cookies and cream was my favorite.  Now I like fly fishing fudge better.  I like waffle cones because they taste good, gummies because they are gummies.  And I like peanut butter cups because they are addictive.

Riddle by Emmett

     This place is very cold.  When you breathe your breath turns into crystals.  It is very easy to fall on the surface that is like steel.  I go there a lot during the evening.  It's hard because if you sneeze it could mean the difference.  It's very easy to let things sneak past your guard.

Farm School by Tigerlily

     I would pick Farm School because I like being around animals.  They all have their own personality so it makes it fun to get to know them.  I also want to be able to have a better idea of what it's like to have pigs and cows and other animals like that.  You might learn how to take care of animals and what they need if they're sick or hurt.

On the Weekends... by Katie

     On the weekends I like to play with my friends and family.  I play with my sister Abby and my best friend Emily!  Sometimes my sister and I go to my grandparents' house.  On the weekends I usually go to soccer games and play in the woods.  The weekdays are different because I have to go to school and do sports.  Emily and I usually play at her house or sometimes mine.  It is fun playing with my friends and family because I get to see them and hang out with them.
