At 6 foot 6 and 260 pounds he was an offensive and defensive lineman. This was a major loss. Don't drink! It ruins lives.

  • Don't stop talking. Keep on talking about silly things that your siblings don't care about.
  • Laugh very very loudly.
  • Do the total opposite of what they are saying.

  • Only say words that start with the same letter.
  • Bother them when they have friends over.
  • Read their text messages on their phone if they have a phone.
  • Start randomly poking them hard in their sides.

Earth Day

What can we do to save our Earth ? On April 22 we will be helping to make our world a better place that is Earth Day . We could recycle paper,cardboard and
plastic. We could also be planting new trees to help the enviorment to replace the trees that we cut down . You could also help by walking , like if you live about 10 houses away from the school dont ask for a ride to school instead walk. dont use to much carbon dioxide it is effecting the Ozone Layer. The Ozone Layer protects us from the suns heat . If it wasnt there you would burn if you went outside and all the ice would melt and it would create a flood in the future . Every Earth day remember to do the 3r's. Reuse, Reduce,and Recycle . Remember that the world is important to us because it'sthe only place we have to live and we need to keep it clean. Don't use as much paper , buy reuse paper . In a notebook don't just use the first page use all pages front and back . We need to help our world to make it a better place. Can you think of anymore things to help?

G-K Baseball League

No more drafting if you were on a team last year and are stuck in the same league because coaches are complaining about how they have to restart teaching with the baseball rules and how they want them to pitch and steal. What do you think about re-drafting?
The teams are Blue Jays, Indians, Angels, Red Sox, White Sox, D-Backs, but some of the teams are not in the league anymore. There are some Kirkland teams.
There's T-ball 5-6 year old, Instrucinal 7-8 years old, Minor 9-10 years old, Bronco 11-12 years old, and Pony 13-14 years old. Games start the first week of May. There is a concession stand at the ballparks and there is a park to.

No Homework In May!

During the month of May, there shouldn't be any homework, because it is becoming warm, it is the last moth of school, and there are lots of sports going on in May. Sam, Gianna, Abbey, and I asked Mrs.Schumacher and she said, "homework in math is very important, but we do need a break sometimes, especially when it is warm out." When it is warm out, you wouldn't want to be be stuck inside doing homework, when you could be outside playing with your friends. The last month of school is supposed to be fun. There is a lot of sports that are starting for the summer. What is you opinion? Do you think there should be homework in May or should we not?

Spring Storms

March 21, spring started. beautiful weather, blooming flowers, and also spring storms. These storms are windy, destructive, and harsh. All of the kids have to stay inside and do something else other than being outside. On Easter Monday, it was beautiful during the day time. That was until 4:00 p.m .Later that night I believe we had a micro-burst. A micro burst is a mini tornado that doesn't touch the ground, but causes a lot of damage. The storm was all the way in West Chicago. That's about 45 min away! I think this storm was trying to wake us up, so we know its spring. Do you like storms? Do you watch storms from your windows? What is a microburst?
