Sewing! Sewing!

We went to the Tunbridge Fair!  I saw somebody sewing.  I learned that you press on a pedal with your foot to make it sew.  They also knit socks, hats, and much more.  That’s how you sew.  It felt better than good to watch how they did that.

My Hopes

I hope to learn new math this year, and I’d like to learn about the American Revolution too.  I am looking forward to new games, phys. ed., sports, and a lot of experiments.  I want to do handwriting, division, reading, and crafts.  I want to eat pizza.  I hope to read a lot of books and do science.  I want to paint and go to the library.  I have a lot of hopes.

Welcome to Your Blog!

Welcome to your blog. This will be a place where you will post pieces you have written. The audience for your writing will not only be students in your own classroom; it will include students in other elementary classrooms as well. Other trusted adults will comment on your writing, making suggestions that will help you to become a better writer.

Always post good writing to your blog. When you post comments about others’ writing, please be considerate and respectful as well as helpful. Treat other online members of this project the same way you would treat them if they were right there in the room with you.

You may not give out personal information, like your name, address, phone number, email address, or family information, to anyone – not even to other members of this project. When you work online on the internet, like we will be doing, it’s important to your safety that you keep personal information about yourself private – even if someone else asks.

If you ever see or read anything on your blog or someone else’s blog that disturbs you or makes you feel uncomfortable, please lower the lid on your computer and tell your teacher right away. She will know how to help.

Finally, be sure to let your parents know about this project. Every day, talk to them about what you’re doing and what you’re learning. They will be interested to hear about your new experiences!
