State Rundown
It was two years ago when we were celebrating our state party for baseball. I remember it like yesterday.
We started playing a game called rundown. We were picking the throwers, and the runners. We started.
The throwers started throwing the ball back and forth. When they were throwing the ball, you could hear it hitting the glove. Pop, pop,pop, as it kept hitting the glove. When they threw it behind me, I ran for the bag.Then they threw it in front of me once more. I went for the other bag, but this time I wasn’t turning around. I was almost to the bag and I slid. Since we were wet, because we were swimming, we could slide far and fast. He got the ball while I was sliding. He tagged me and yelled, “You’re Out!” After it was over we got the grass off of our stomach by getting in the pool. The grass was really itchy.
We dried off and refreshed for a minute. After our break, we played again.
Two years ago we won state, and had a party. When the party was over I inherited it is better to go with what they call than to argue with it.
Never Alone
Melody wasn’t feeling too good.
Her fish jumped out of the bowl.
She couldn’t yell.
She couldn’t do anything.
All she could do was sit there
and watch her fish die.
All the fish wanted
was some freedom just
like Melody.
When the fish jumped out of the bowl,
he couldn’t make
it on his own.
Melody will always
need someone there
by her side to help with everyday tasks.
Melody’s mom
knows that she
will always need help.
Melody’s mom doesn’t know she feels depressed
because she can’t do things by herself.
Melody doesn’t feel well.

Holocaust Response
- One thing I learned about the Holocaust study is that not to be afraid of your surroundings. When the Nazis took over more and more people started to be scared. That showed the Nazis that they were scared of them. Just because the Nazis came and took over doesn’t mean you can’t just be yourself. You always have to just be yourself and don’t be afraid of your surroundings.
- Another thing I learned is that stand in what you believe in not what others think in you. The Nazis thought that you were not good people but if you believe in yourself that the thing that counts.
Number The Stars
Dear Diary,
I was racing with my friend Ellen. I raced her to the street corner. When I got to the street corner two soldiers were standing tall. Then Ellen and Kirsty followed behind. The soldiers asked,“Why are you running?” I replied, “ I was just racing my friend.” The soldiers said, “ Ok go on and don’t run on the sidewalk.” I said, “ yes sir.” We went home and Ellen said,”I’m not going to tell.” I said, “I won’t either.” But when I got in my house Kirsty was already telling my parents. Ellen’s mom was in there too. My mom just told Ellen and I to take a different way for now on.
Sincerely, Annemarie

A Good Game
It was a cold day.
We were playing football.
1st down.
I ran for the endzone
I didn’t make it.
2nd down
I went out for a pass
boom the ball hit the ground.
I didn’t catch it.
3rd down
I went out for a pass again
this time I caught it.
4th down
The quarterback was in trouble
he was running around
You could hear his feet stomping.
He threw the ball.
I jumped and caught it.
TOUCHDOWN
We ended up winning the game.
Similarities and Differences of Technology and in Person
There are many similarities between communicating in person and using technology. One way is that you are both are talking.When I text I am talking to someone, and I am also talking face to face. You have to be careful of what you say in person and in texting. One time I was talking with someone and I was talking with them in person and they knew it was a joke and when I said it on my phone they took it the wrong way. In person and in texting you are both staying in touch. These are many similarities.
Communicating using technology and in person have many differences. One difference is that you can back away in texting but in person you can’t back away.You also have to respond back. One time I was talking with someone and I didn’t answer back and they got mad at me. In person you show your emotion and in texting you use emojies. My friend put a crying face and I thought that I made him sad. These are many differences of communicating in person and technology.
A Bad Day in the Ocean
One day we were in the middle of the ocean about to go scuba diving with sharks.
We got our stuff on and dove in. We went down a little ways. Lexi started getting scared so she told us. We said,”Just stay close.” Then she started to tell us over and over.
Finally, we said, “ If you’re scared then you can go back up,but watch out for Breyden he is a shark.” On her way up Breyden was looking for something to eat. Breyden saw Lexi,he swam over there and bit her leg.Lexi started screaming, “HELP, HELP!” We all were trying to get Breyden off of Lexi. Then I went to the boat and started honking the horn. I kept trying to get other people’s attention. The horn wasn’t working, so I dove back in and help free Lexi from Breyden.
Breyden finally swam away then we had a problem. Lexi was hurt really badly and we had to get her to help. We arrived at the beach and we got help immediately. Lexi was screaming, “HELP, HELP.” Then all the people around came to help.We stopped the bleeding with a towel.
Finally, we took Lexi to the doctor and the doctor said “ She just has minor shark bites.” Lexi was just fine the next but she was just sore from the shark attack.
