Book Fair by Korryn


This week our school had a book fair.  There were pet books, cook books, and even books about spiders.  There were how to books also.  There were some pens, wallets, and more.  All purchases benefit the school and it was open at conveniently times.  There was one book there we all recognized-Canned by Alex Shearer.  We have been reading Canned for the past month and we aren't finished yet, as it is relatively long.  Now some of us are done with Canned because we purchased copies of this great book.  Canned is about a boy named Fergel Bamfield who collects...you guessed it, cans.  But not any cans...cans with no labels.  Can you guess what he finds?  Body parts... read this awesome book to find out why.

Korryn's Blog from Last Week

We decided to let all students write a blog then we selected our favorite.  This blog was submitted by Korryn from Mrs. Nelson's Class:

In Mrs. Nelson's Class we have been reviewing math so that we are ready for the math Texas Assessment of Knowledge and skills, or TAKS test.  Mrs. Nelson expects us to receive commended on the test, and I think if we try really hard we could do it.  We take this test quite seriously here, and we already know the math, so we should be able to.  Mrs. Nelson is a good teacher and has prepared us very well.  So bring it on state of TEXAS!!!
