(to the tune of Mary Had a Little Lamb)

Nathan had a puppy dog
who liked to eat his shoes.
And every time he ate his shoes
it gave him the blues.

My name is Meg
I love to eat poached eggs
I also love tofu
Especially when it’s new
My favourite food is broccoli
Nobody likes it but me!

Once upon a time there was a girl and she sky-dived from a plane and landed on something while she was still in the air. She tried to figure out what she had landed on, and after two looks, she figured it out that it was a goose! She looked down and was saw that she was flying over town. She was a little bit scared because she was so high and she had nothing to hold onto so she was afraid she might fall. She looked at the wings and they gave her an idea. She stretched her arms sidewards and caught hold of the wings. It was kinda hard because she had to put her arms up when the bird flapped its wings up, and down when the bird flapped its wings down, and that was pretty hard to do. Once she held the wings, she was no longer scared. She had a pretty great view of all the skyscrapers, houses and tall buildings. When the bird landed, she got off and patted its head. The bird took a drink of water and flew up again, but she walked back home.

For our experiment, we collected kidney beans and black eyed beans, two jars, some paper towels, and some water. We rolled the paper towel into the jar and placed the beans in the jar in between the jar and the paper towel. Then, we added some water. One jar we stood up, and the other was laid on its side. We expected the roots to grow down towards the water to suck up the water, and the shoots to grow up towards the sun. And that’s what happened in both jars! We saw that roots always grow downwards towards water, and shoots always grow up towards the sun.

Nathan and Gabe were tied together for a three-legged race. The race was from the grass, to the Great Wall of China (it was a long race). Mommy and Daddy, Abigail and Emily were at the race. Sophia was there too, but she wasn’t really watching. She heard the sounds though, which scared her and made her cry. Nathan started running faster with one of his legs, which made them start to turn around. Gabe started to run faster too, so they ended up turning back on the path. Then, something silly happened. All of the ropes broke and all of the partners started running on their own, and it became a two-legged race! Nathan ran faster than all the others and won! Gabe came in second place. The prizes were Shepherds Pie meals, so Nathan got the biggest one, and Gabe got a smaller meal. Meals don’t last long though, so after their meals, they also got trophies.

Custard is my pet cat and she loves to play. She also likes treats! Every time I give her a treat, she tries to get the jar of treats and eat them all, but I always tell her not to. She also likes licking me, which is pretty funny. Sometimes, as a treat, I give her the ball of yarn to play with. She likes playing with me the most, and loves me most when she is with me.

Once upon a time, there lived two ants. The older ant was John, and his younger brother was Tim. They both liked a garbage truck, but there was only room for one ant at the window. They didn’t want to go to the garbage truck for food because they were afraid they might get picked up by the garage truck. They started fighting and getting angry at each other because they both wanted to see the garbage truck. When Momma Ant saw them and heard them she said, “Uh-uh. There are two windows. You shouldn’t be fighting over one window. You can each go to your own window.” They didn’t fight again at the window because they realized they loved each other more than the window.

blue is the sky
blue is the water
blue feels like Emily’s Popple
blue smells like cotton candy icing
blue looks like Sophia’s Bumbo
blue is my color
