Kids Blog the Darndest Things

When my kids started blogging the first week in June, I gave them an initial assignment:  Tell us what you did Memorial Day weekend.


After that first assignment, kids were free to blog about anything they wanted.  Here are some of the more popular posts and their comments.  Every student uses a pseudonym for the blog.  


Jellyfish Sting    by Annie
On Sunday I went to the beach with my friend Alice.  When we went in the water a jellyfish stung me.  After the jellyfish stung me my mom took me to the lifeguard and he sprayed vinegar on me.  Then my mom, brother, Alice and I dug a big hole.  Then we buried my brother in the hole.  Now I'm really scared to go in the water.  But it was still fun.

A Really BIG Dinner   by Captain
Yesterday I went to an all you can eat buffet.  There was a lot of food.  I almost exploded.  My fortune cookie said, "Luck comes to those who help themselves."  When we were on our way back we went to go check a certain time at the movies.  We were going to watch Shrek Part 4. When we came back home, my dad and I went on the skateboard around the block.  It was a fun day for me and don't ask me why because I just told you dude!

He Came Back    by Annabeth

 My step dad came back from the country he was born. It is Peru . He came on Friday on the middle of the night. I saw him the next day. It was when I woke up. First my family went to mc donald because my sister picked that place to eat breakfast.Then we when to the mall to buy some stuff for my big sister’s project. After we went to the movies.  They  made me see “Shrek Forever After.”  That’s what I did for celebrating my step dad’s coming back.
