Where I’m FromBy Jerel
I’m from humid, breezy afternoons in September. I’m from playing baseball with my team.I am from eating warm apple pie with cold ice cream.I am from going to Sea World with my friends in a big charter bus.I am from shooting water from water guns at my friends on a hot, summer day.I am from watching TV while lazily lying on a couch, from playing games on my computer.I am from sliding at an almost 90 degree angle on a water slide at Schlitterbahn,
Galveston. I am from watching bright fireworks rocket up into the black sky, and then exploding like a bomb, shooting sparks everywhere.I am from watching the horrible new about the devastating Hurricane Katrina hitting Louisiana, from watching huge tidal waves hit a beach on TV.I am from blowing the candles on my ice cream birthday cake.
Where are you from?

Reported by Liz B.
I went to Building Robotics. I see them building with Legos, wheels and robotic things. I see them pairing up in groups. I hear them talking together and deciding what to build. I hear them arguing and complimenting each other. I feel a hot and cold room at the same time.
They are talking about building a model with Legos. Also, they are talking about what color pieces the need to use. They are using Legos and model wheels. They are talking about what pieces to use and they are talking about what part they passed and what part they didn’t pass. They are in the robotics class in the summer Rainard building.
Materials in the class: computers, books, cubbies, cabinets, art supplies, desks and boxes.

Hieroglyphics (Embedded Report)
In hieroglyphics, they were making papyrus bookmarks and scrolls with hieroglyphics. Mrs. Wanda put some coffee in a mug and a picture of a priest comes out. I heard people humming and talking. I felt the room is very messy because they were using paint and glitter. I thought they were doing really good.

In the cooking class, they were making pizza. They were making the dough, and there were lots of flour everywhere. I could learn lots of pots panging together. Everybody was laughing because somebody was about to sit in a tiny a chair. A kid was telling a joke. Everybody was becoming very distracted.
They became settled eventually when they began talking about yeast. It smelled very good in the kitchen; they were kneading the dough. Everybody started talking again when a teacher walked through.
It was very cozy in the room, and the temperature was just right.
The yeast started to smell like old cereal. The yeast was fermenting. I just learned that beer has yeast.
Overall the class was interesting. I learned a lot of facts personally.

Once there was a really strange frog. He liked the warm water instead of the cold water. One day he was basking in the sun. He said, “What a beautiful day for a swim in the pond.” The pond was always warm so he jumped right in! Splash! The water was a freezing cold!!! “O no whatever shall I do?” he cried helplessly. There was a child there and he saw that the frog was shivering. He felt bad for the frog. He carefully picked up the frog and gently warmed it up. “You got to warm a frog early,” he said to himself. He started to laugh and the frog started to croak and giggle too. It was a happy day for them both, because the frog had been saved by a jolly old boy. The boy had fun saving the frog. The boy ran to his house and put the frog in his own warm pond.
