      Hello! This is Trevor and Jordan. We are 2nd graders. Our Teacher is Mrs.Cowan. She's REALLY nice. First we write in our homework in our agendas. Next we get stickers in our agendas. Then we went to the cafeteria and we disussed the rules with Mr. Lauzon. He went over the Panther Sounds. He did not call them rules. He called them behavior standards.
     Next we came back to our portable. We had to take a reading test.It was kind of hard. We had to be detailed in our writing. Then we had good hot chocolate and three kinds of cookies for a snack. The hot choclate was very warm which was nice since it was so cold. It made us feel warmer.
     After that, we did math. We had to add with big numbers. It took us about 30 minutes to do. Then we went to lunch. The food was okay. Our drinks tasted colder because it was cold outside.
     Then we did independent reading. Independent reading is reading your own books from your bookbag. They are sorted by levels. Next we read The Graves Family by Patricia Polacco. It was different then some of us predicted. That book was out of this world!
     Guess what we did next? We went to the library. We colored and checked out new books. Jordan got a dinosaur book and Trevor got a kid book. Then we made cards for Mema. We hope she gets well soon. The day was fun and we learned a lot. Then it was time for dismissal. See you tomorrow!
