Bigger, Better, Faster, Stronger!

Last week on Thursday Room 16 we tried to build a tower out of paper. We had a choice to work on our own or to work with a buddy. I chose to work with a buddy so that we could work together and share our ideas. My buddy was Britney.

First Britney and I shared our ideas so that we could choose who's idea was the best for us to use. When we both finished telling each other our ideas Britney choose my idea which was to make triangle legs and make the bottom part wide and make the top part thin. I didn’t agree with Britney because I thought that her idea was to make triangle legs but roll all the parts thin so that the legs can hold all the paper.

At the end our tower looked horrible and it couldn’t stand up. But it didn’t matter because we weren't the only ones! I felt happy because I didn’t just sit there like I normally did.

Miss Rogers

Today we have a wonderful lady in our classroom. Her name is Miss Rogers. She has a different accent from us because she came with a bunch of other people from America. She has a wonderful looking and she suits the way she dresses. Miss Rogers is a very kind person and she is always polite. I hope She would visit us again.

My Friend Elizabeth

I have a friend. Her name is Elizabeth. Sometime I call her Liz for short. Liz likes to eat pork bones for dinner and she also likes to eat chocolate chip ice cream for desert. Liz loves to watch t.v. Her favorite t.v show is Spongbob Square Pants. She also likes to watch The Simpson. She is very funny and she also like to ask to many question, and it could get very annoying .
