Here I will share my favorite work and other things

February 12 Dear Ms. Johnson, // Where do you live? // I live in a small neighborhood called Heatherwold off of Providence Road in Wallingford. It has four streets, Furness, Blackthorn, Barley Mill, and Green Valley. I live on Green Valley. The streets form an eight shape, and Green Valley is the biggest street, stretching up the sides. Blackthorn acts as the top of the eight, Barley Mill is the middle, and Furness is just mostly an extra bit. There are about one hundred kids there, and a little bit less adults. There are a lot of trees and grass and green. There are also some houses very close to Heatherwold and they participate in the neighborhood’s traditions. I love where I live. Truthfully, Emma G.

January 28 Dear Ms. Johnson, // Who are you? // I am Emma G. My favorite color is blue, and I love reading and electronics. I would very much enjoy if I could if I could continue playing Webkinz, but my mom told me to finish my homework. So, my dad works at a company he created, and my mom stays at home. I have a brother named Jake, and two sisters named Anna and Sophie. My family also has a dog, Tess. We are going to get another dog in spring and maybe a fish and a 20% chance of a turtle. I’m going to try to raise the percent of that turtle. I already wrote a story about the turtle we’re going to get when I was 8. If we got the turtle when I was 8, I would’ve named the turtle Myrtle, but now I don’t know what I’d name it. We’re sure the dog’s going to be Sam (short for Samantha) and my mom wants to name the fish Toes (????). All this writing is hurting my hand, and anyways, we have to take our babysitter home. Sincerely, Emma G.

How do I think I am doing in school? Why? I think I'm doing okay.I don't really have a good reason besides I haven't failed or got held back and I did excellent on the PSSAs that we got the score for. And I (usually) try my best in school, except when I'm tired or energetic or not feeling well, and then I don't really try at all. And my parents haven't gotten a "Your child needs to try harder note". Yet. What are you doing well? I am doing fantastic in SSR. And okay in Art. And great in Library. And fine in P.E. and Music. And good in Cookie Campaign. Excellent in Read-Aloud. And wonderful in recess. I am also kinda good in Reading, Math, and Science. And oh yeah. I'm outstanding in Writing and Poetry. What can you get better at? I can work harder in Math. I can not moan and groan when I see Daybook. I can stop counting the minutes till lunch and writing it down on the nearest folder, piece of paper, or remaining scraps of name tag. I can stop doodling in all subjects and judging a lesson by it's name. (Daybook, Math, Science, etc.) I can work harder on a lot of things. Even the things I'm good at.
