TAKS TEKS Check

So today Mrs. Jackson told the class that we were having a Math TAKS check today. I freaked out but I think I did good. So then after a little while it was time to go to lunch and I wasn't nervous anymore. After that when Mrs. Jackson came in the lunch room to get us she said who ever has to finish the TAKS checks go back to the room. So I went back to the room and started. I wasn't as nervous - I was just a little. After that I finished at 1:20pm right when everyone came in. I felt so dumb that I didn't get to go outside.

The War

By Jacob K.

Last week in Social Studies we finished the Revolutionary War. The whole class enjoyed learning about it. And the Revolutionary War was Texas vs. Mexicans for Texas freedom.

Snow

White falling powder
Surrounding me all around
Frigid cold holding me
In a winter wonderland spell.

Frost dotting my nose and lashes
Covering the ground like a blanket,
Pillowy softness building up
Making not a sound.


Wasn't it amazing to see all that snow? What can you write about snow?

2010...

A new year has begun, which means it is time to evaluate and set goals. Reflect back on your work habits during the fall semester of 2009. Which things did you do well? What things can you continue to work on? As we progress through the spring semester of 2010, think of your strengths, and use them to work on your weaknesses. Each of us can always improve upon ourselves. I hope that you take the time to evaluate, learn, and progress!!!! Happy 2010!
