Energy

Tomorrow is World Affairs Day at school, and we're focusing on Energy this year. The fourth graders are going to make a presentation for the first graders. We have to write about renewable and non-renewable resources of energy. First, half the class had to search information on renewable resources of energy, like solar, tidal, wind, geothermal, and hydroelectric. I searched Solar. Then I printed out the information, highlighted the most important parts, translated it into first grade friendly words, and wrote it down. Here is what I wrote:
Solar Power has no fuel costs. It is a renewable resource. As long as the Sun exists, its Energy can reach the Earth. Solar Power does not pollute- or poison- the air or water, because the fuels don't blow up. Solar Power can be used to heat: solar ovens, water, heaters for homes, and daylight. The only bad thing about solar heat is that it can't work at night.

What do you guys think? Is it first-grade friendly? Hope you learned something interesting.

Tomorrow is also Tourism Day, where we dress up as tourists for a Spirit Day.

It's only 1 week till my brother's birthday! And also, 1 week and 2 days till his party.

Early Everything!

Early answer to the riddle. It is possible, but his mom's mother's daughter's son's father's sister's niece is his sister.

Early Happy Memorial Day. :)

So, have you guys read "HOOT" by Carl Hiaasen? It is such a good book. It's about this boy named Roy who just moved to Florida. He sees a barefoot boy running by the school bus and later meets him, trying to help the boy, Mullet Fingers (he can catch a mullet fish with his bare hands.) save the cute little owls whose burrows are at a construction site for a brand new Mother Paula's Flapjack House.

I have a 3-day weekend because of Memorial Day on Monday. What about you?

Crazy Dress Day!

Today was Crazy Dress Day at school, and also PE. I wore sweatpants; an orange shirt turned inside out; a magenta plastic party necklace; a pink feather boa; my watch way up on my arm; 1 silver-, 1 magenta-and-black striped fingerless glove; 1 anklet, 1 long sock; and my Kooky pen from Ash's party goodie bag, hooked on a ponitail and in my hair. I was probably the craziest in my class, with people turning their shirt inside out or backwards or wearing un-matching socks and shoes or wearing layered T-Shirts and ties. Did I tell you tomorrow is the Jog-a-Thon at my school? Tell you about it tomorrow!
