My First Day of Second Grade

hi my name is KAYTE i had fun in school. i liked it all the way too my back. I loved it! It was fun! My favorite part was the cuisinaire rods and reading and math and grammer and handwriting and science and history and EVERYTHING! We learned about Christopher Columbus. He sailed a boat. In art, I learned there are three kinds of lines. I can't remember them. I will look on my paper. Uhh, diagonal, vertical and horizontal. And we colored in the lines and made patterns. In the middle, we did broken lines. I skipped the horixontal one. I guess I will do it tomorrow if I ever have time! I loved school!

For you...

Dear Kaytie,

I am so proud of you that you are all the way to second grade already! You work so hard and school and I am glad that you enjoy learning so much. I am looking forward to school this year. I think we are going to have a lot of fun and we are going to learn a lot.

Love,

Mom

About School

I love school. mom found a formula holder. mama put green water in it.

I love Mom

Once upon a time there was a little girl who loved her parents. And one day she wrote a message on a magnadoodle and it said "I love Dad I love Mom. Yep!" So here is a little message. "Mom will go to Michigan in a few weeks. Like 10." There are pattern blocks on the desk. Yellow, red, blue green, and white. And so one time on October we went to a little cool place with a corn maze and a big tub filled with corn. And there was a big slide that had little bumps and it was hard. And another slide made out of tubes, white ones. And there was a duck race and there was a hay maze that was easy and one boy was going through the hay maze and he said, "That the hay maze was a trapper."
