First Weeks by Gracie

During the first week at school, Linda's class had a double period of Language Arts. We discussed what we were going to do as the year wore on and how to write the "Where I'm From" poem. We brought in photos of our childhood. They were all very cute. We had to write about ourselves and then put it in the poem. While we wrote, Katrina delighted herself by looking at our photos. Then we went to the computer lab and typed. Almost everyone finished the poem. Katrina scanned the photos into the computer and said we would finish it on Thursday. On Thursday, we finished editing our pictures and started a photo story. In social studies, we looked up where our last names came from and the history of it. Katrina promised us if we finished our poems and photo story, then we could play Monopoly.
