Would You Play With Me?
A Story About Friendship
Jerry the mouse was looking for someone to play with. He saw Ben the monkey. "Would you play
with me Ben?" Jerry asked. "I'm sorry Jerry", Ben said, "but I'm busy and I can't play with
you." Jerry was sad Ben couldn't play with him, but off he went. He then saw Bill the dog.
"Would you play with me me Bill?" Jerry asked. "I'm sorry Jerry", bill said, "I can't play
with you, I'm too busy." Jerry was sad. Would anybody play with him? Jerry walked for a little
while until he saw Mickey the raccoon. "Would you play with me?" He asked. "I'm sorry I can't
play with you, I'm busy." Jerry was really sad nobody could play with him. Was something wrong
with him, he wondered? Or was it because he was too small? Then he met Susan the duck. "Would
you play with me Susan?" "Yes", said Susan. "I'll play with you." Jerry was happy because
maybe it wasn't because he was too small. And they played. The end.

Half Term Happenings!
On Half Term, we enjoyed getting sweets. We enjoyed swimming and chocolate bars and ice cream.
We had fun making half term houses to have rest hour in. We had fun playing. We ate lunch at
the river. We had fun roller blading with Miss Kelly. Daniel used A.J.'s roller blades. We
enjoyed having computers and playing games on the computer with Mr. Ronald. Daniel had fun
playing by himself. We enjoyed going down to the river and making a choo-choo train with tubes
in the small pool. Michael had the idea of making a choo-choo train for us. I liked India (the
dog) when he was chasing Tom and me (Lemekani). In computers some people got to load games
and play them if the computer was able to hold it. Silver and Gold Seal went on the flying fox,
which Mr. Bierworth put up. Red and Blue Seal got to go down the water slide. Michael and A.J.
did a flip and got 10 points from Mr. Bierworth. Miss Martin and Mrs. Young made wiener wraps
for us. Mr. Young prayed for the food every time in the morning and at night.

Laziness
Laziness is lavender,
It tastes like chocolate and
marshmallows and smells like beautiful roses.
Laziness looks like a person sleeping.
It sounds like a lullaby, and feels like
a hot bubble bath that I don't want
to leave!
