As a fourth grade student we are going to see Annie the musical. I am not only exited to see Annie but I am really exited to see my sister. My sister has a main part. Not Annie, but Grace. Grace is the one who wants to adopt Annie. I can’t wait to see it. I like the movies emotion. It has a lot of feelings. Happy, Sad, even some parts that don’t make me scared but worried. The play will be going on April 30th-April 31. Sitting in a theater seat watching a musical makes me feel special to know that the cast had to memorize their dances and remember their lines. I can’t wait to go see it! -Anja =]
We have been exploring websites for kids. There are many Websites out on the internet that kids learn, explore, connect other kids, and play!
My choice is a website that helps kids learn and has many learning games.
I like it because It has a lot of activities to learn, and to have fun. it also has coloring, videos, and music. =)

We have been working on book talks for our Holmes Book Fair. I read and wrote a book for Purpilicious. By Victoria Kann and Elizabeth Kann. It is a fiction story, and is about a girl names Pinkalicious who gets her feelings hurt because all the other kids LOVE black but Pinkalicious LOVES pink.

I have a book baggie book that I can read. I want to share some information with you about my book. This story is about a twelve year old boy named Torak who’s father who was dying told Torak to go to the Mountain Of The World spirit. He meets a wolf on that way and learns how to speak wolf. It takes place in a Deep Forest, Giant Glaciers and more! My favorite character is Torak because he is twelve years old and defeats a bunch of things.I would recommend this book because while your reading the book you feel like your there!

Have you ever wondered who helped Black people have rights? Martin Luther King Jr. did! He was born January 15,1929. He was famous for his “I have a dream speech.” Martin Luther King Jr.wanted to become a minister. Like his father, he was a very good speaker. Martin Luther King wanted to stop slavery, and the rules of what White people could do but black people did not have permission to use, If black people did use the things they could not they would have to go to jail. Martin Luther King Jr. helped stop slavery. He was a minister for a church when he was not very old. He also won a Nobel Prize for his “I Have A Dream Speech.” Unfortunately he was shot and died at the age of 39. He died in 1968. Martin Luther King Jr. helped Blacks have the same rights as white people. If you would like to hear my “I Have A Dream Speech” click on the link below. -Anja
Early November the fourth grade went to the Aquadic Center. We went there to swim for Gym. We all had so much fun! I loved being at the Aquatic Center, There is a ton of fun exercises we do. I like doing the water push ups! You pull yourself up out of the water, then you let go and slowly go under water, You would do that again and again! When we have free time I live going down the slide, and the baby slide is fun! It is not nearly as scary as the big Slide. The “bucket” sounds pretty scary when I say it that way, but it is not at all! A big bucket fills up with water, Then it splashes all over you! There is a lot of fun things you can do at the Aquatic Center! I hope to go there again!
