Car Wash
•May 21, 2008 • Leave a CommentThe car wash is fun to go in. It looks cool while it is washing your car. I like the scrubers, water sprayers and the air blowers. You can wash the car and you don’t even have to drive. We say “Yeah” when we get to go in the car wash. That is why it is fun to go in the car wash.
Science Board
•May 20, 2008 • Leave a CommentI am doing a project at school called a Science Board. We have to use stick-on letters that are one inch tall. You have to trace your title. My title is “Batter’s Blast.” The boards have graphics on them. That is what Science Boards are.
Here is a what I have on my Science Board:
Batter’s Blast
Question: Does a major league baseball go farther when hit by a wooden or a metal bat?
Hypothesis: I think that the wooden bat will hit the major league baseball farther than the metal bat.
Procedure:
1. Gather a wooden bat, a metal bat, 5 numbered major league baseballs and a measuring wheel.
2. Go to an open field with a parent or buddy who can pitch the ball to you.
3. Hit a ball five times with the wooden bat and measure the distance of each hit using the measuring wheel.
4. Record the distances for the wooden bat.
5. Hit a ball five times with the metal bat and measure the distance of each hit using the measuring wheel.
6. Measure the distance that each ball traveled and record the distances.
7. Record the distances for the metal bat.
8. Repeat the experiment 5 times.
9. Prepare a graph of your results.
Findings: The average distance that I hit the baseball with a wooden bat was 96.3 feet. The average distance that I hit the baseball with a metal bat was 90.6 feet.
Conclusion: My hypothesis was correct. The wooden bat hit the major league baseball farther than the metal bat.
Tag
•April 5, 2008 • Leave a CommentI do not like playing tag. I only play if there aren’t any other third graders to play with who are doing something else. I do not like tag because I am not a fast runner so everyone goes after me. I am “it” a lot.
I reported to my class in current events that a school in Colorado banned tag on its playground. A lot of kids like tag, so I am glad that they did not ban tag at my school. I will just try to find something else to do.

Indoor Recess
•February 17, 2008 • Leave a CommentIt rained 2 days this week. We had to have indoor recess, which I hate. Here is why I hate indoor recess:
-
it feels like the recess is shorter
-
there are not as many things to play that I like
-
you can’t run
-
you can’t use a ball
-
we stay in our classroom
-
you don’t get to see friends from other classes
I am glad it doesn’t rain very often.

I am Garfield!
•February 3, 2008 • 1 CommentI love to watch Garfield, the movie. I am like Garfield. He is funny, he likes lasagna and he pretends he doesn’t like Odie, just like sometimes I pretend I don’t like my brother.
Which Comic Strip character are you???
You are Garfield!!!!!! You absolutely love lasagna and you could sleep all day on weekends. You are a lazy cat who has a huge heart and makes everybody laugh!! Your happieness can be contaigus. A great day for you would be sitting on a big comfy chair eating snacks all day and napping. Just take it back and relax. Sometimes though you need to get off of the couch and run around and hang with your buds.

I won Super Pickle today!
•February 2, 2008 • Leave a CommentWe had our second baseball practice today. The last thing we did at the practice was a game of Super Pickle. Super Pickle is when the whole team runs around the bases. The coaches cover the bases and have to get the runners out. If you are out, you have to sit on the bench in the dugout. The last person who doesn’t get out is the winner.
After practice, I went to a friend’s birthday party. At the party we played football, baseball and tennis. My coach from school was there. It was fun to see him outside of school. He is a nice man. The best part was I got to see my friends and we didn’t have to do any school work. It was like a really long recess!
