April 25, 2008- by Aiko

Up, up and away! Today is kite day and ,I, Aiko S. will tell you about Friday, April 18,2008. This morning at approximately 8:30am I did my morning work. I did a couple of division problems and some word problems. I thought it was pretty easy. Then, we did our lesson on finding a pattern; you mostly had to use a table to find the pattern.

Now we move on and we're reading. We're reading "Koko`s Kittens." It is about a gorilla who gets a kitten and treats her kitten like her baby. Sadly, later Koko got a call and found out that Koko`s kitten, All Ball, had died in a car accident. Koko was so sad, but after almost a year Koko got a new kitten named Lipstick. So after the story we had recess and I mostly had to be in the office because of my diabetes. I have to prick my finger. If my blood sugar is low I have to eat sugar. If it is high, then I have to bolus insulin into myself; pretty tricky.

After recess we went to music class where we sang a song called "Viva La Musica". When music was over, we took a tests on spelling and I did horrible I think. Ding! The bell rang! It was the most important moment we all been waiting for; it's lunch!

As I was walking up to the lunch room I saw my mom. We had lunch together but nobody came to the lunch room. After lunch I went up top and saw A LOT of kites; almost a hundred or maybe a thousand kites. I started my kite by the second water fountain and it didn`t do a very good job but when the wind picked up I did great.

I started to let the string go and it went high. It flew for an hour then we had to go in. When we were in we read a story called Tails Of A Fourth Grade Nothing. It was about a kid who has a brother and he is crazy. He also swallowed a turtle... weird. Then on our white board we saw a video and PowerPoint from Ms. Metcalfe (our student teacher ). Her dad is a geologist so we had a better slide show than we otherwise would have.
The slide show was on rocks. on a rating scale it rates a 1,000,000000,000! It was awesome what can I say. But then I realized that it was a lesson on erosion. Erosion is when wind or water can create a hole or form a different rock its cool.

Then it was HOT time, HOT time means homework on time but I forgot to do part of my homework so I had to go to another persons class. when I was there they made me write a paper on the rules for school. Ding! The bell rang again and the day was over!
