Bob did not like to share. He kept all his
toys for himself.
None of the kids liked Bob because he
didn’t share his toys.
Bob was alone and sad, so he decided to
share his fire truck with Demonte.
Demonte shared his toy with Bob. Bob
was so happy that he started sharing all of
his toys with everyone.
Soon, everyone liked Bob because he
shared, and Bob got to play with other
kid’s toys all because he shared.
Baby Frogs

Once upon a time there was a tadpole, who
was new to the world and very curious.
Before he even knew what was going on, he
started to grow legs.
All the other tadpole laughed and picked at
him, because he was the only one with legs.
The tadpole, swam and hid in his nest from all
of the others.
Then one day, the little tadpole took a swim
around the pond. He noticed that one of the
other tadpoles started to grow legs.
Soon after, the little tadpole realized that he
wasn’t so different after all. All of the other
tadpoles were growing legs too; even the ones
that had picked on him before.
Then they all came up to the little tadpole and
said they were sorry for picking on him. They
too, had realized that they were all the same.
Moral: Never judge, because no one is better than
the next.
Differences

There was a group of balloons. One was
blue and the rest were red.
The blue balloon was sad because it wasn’t
red.
The blue balloon painted himself red to fit in.
When they were outside talking, it
started to rain.
The red paint started to come off when it
rained.
In a few minutes all the red paint came off.
All the red balloons told the blue
balloon “you can be different and still fit
in.”

Emily the Elephant
Emily was on her way to school when she
ran into a zebra. Zip the Zebra told Emily
that they were going to the same school.
Emily and Zip made their way to school
when all of a sudden Ashleigh the
alligator, the bully of the school, told them
that if they didn’t give her their lunch
money, then she would beat them up.
Emily and Zip stood up to Ashleigh and
told her that they were not doing any such
thing and that she should stop trying to
bully people.
Ashleigh never had anybody stand up to
her the way Emily and Zip did. Ashleigh,
who didn’t have any friends, thought about
what they said and came to the conclusion
that she wasn’t going to bully anyone else
Moral: Don’t treat others the way you
wouldn’t want to be treated or else you will
end up with no friends like Ashleigh.

Everyone in the
world is a helper no
matter how big or
small.
Another way that you
can be a helper is
helping the elderly.
You can help around the house with your parents
and take the trash out.
When you eat
something always
put your trash in
the trash can.
• Remember you can always help someone no matter how big or small you are, if you put your mind to it.
Dinosaurs fit in

On the first day of school, Dinosaur
was very nervous about meeting new
friends. He was a lot bigger than most
animals and they were usually
frightened of him.
Everything was going well for
Dinosaur. Story time was fun, and the
teachers were nice. When recess
started, Dinosaur went outside and sat
by himself because everyone already
had friends.
Dinosaur was so sad that when he went
home he cried to his mom. He cried and
cried while his mom tried to calm him down.
She told him that he should at least try and
talk to the other animals and make friends.
This made Dinosaur feel better and he
decided to try the next day.
The next day, Dinosaur tried to talk to
everyone. He said “Hi” to Cat and Dog, but
they ran away. He said “Hi” to Bird, but she
flew away. He said “Hi” to Fish, but he hid in
his castle. He said “Hi” to Squirrel, but she
ran up a tree. Finally, Dinosaur said “Hi” to
Ferret, and she climbed up his back and
started playing with him.
Once everyone saw that Dinosaur was
very friendly with Ferret, they were not
afraid of him anymore. Dinosaur soon
was friends with everyone. =D

Max and his mom and dad walked into the
school, on the first day. Max was happy he had
his parents with him.
Max’s parents walked him to his class, and
then gave him a hug and kiss. After that, they
said goodbye and turned to walk away.
Max didn’t want to stay there alone; but he
knew he had to be brave. He felt like running
after them.
Instead he walked to the nearest group of kids.
They looked at him, and he said “Hello.”
They then asked him to come play with them.
With a smile on his face, Max realized he
wouldn’t be alone.
Max and his new friends then ran off to play
basketball. By the end of the day, he was
friends with everyone and had really enjoyed
school.

-Making Friends
By: Ashleigh Barbee

Ashley and Celeste were shocked at the class’s attendance. They didn’t know anyone in the class. They didn’t want to go back to North Elementary. The teacher, Ms. Bob, paired them for the first task.
They talked about their family and pets.
They noticed that they had a lot of hobbies
in common.
They were inseparable. Everywhere you
saw Celeste, you saw Ashley. Before they
knew it they were best friends.
They never knew making friends could
be so easy. They learned that making
friends could help them in the coming
years.
The Friends That Couldn’t Get
Along

Once upon a time, there were four pretty
close friends. There was Adam, Elizabeth,
Joan, and Daniel. Elizabeth and Joan
have been friends for years now. They
just met Adam and Daniel this year.
When Joan and Daniel met, they quickly
became friends. Adam and Elizabeth
didn’t agree with this. Elizabeth just knew
that Joan and Daniel weren’t meant to be.
So Adam and Elizabeth decided to come
up with a plan to stop Joan and Daniel’s
friendship. They decided that they would
tell each of them a different story. Adam
would tell Daniel that Joan wasn’t a good
friend. He said the reason was that he
heard Joan was someone that couldn’t be
trusted at all.
Daniel didn’t believe him at first but then
the more and more that Adam said things
he believe him. Then Daniel finally
believed him and told Joan they couldn’t
be friends anymore.
Joan wasn’t really mad because Elizabeth had already told her that Daniel couldn’t be trusted and that they shouldn’t be friends. Then for the next few days Joan and Elizabeth as well as Adam and Daniel kept to themselves.
Then one day Joan and Daniel had a class
together. Then they decided that they
needed to be friends again because they
missed each other too much. They said it
don’t matter what Adam and Elizabeth
said.
In the end Elizabeth and Adam realized
that if their friends are happy then it was
good. So they were all friends from that
day on.

☺

Alice walked up to Dyno-Dan. Dyno-Dan told Awesome-
Alice about Mr. Math’s class. Awesome-Alice said “Don’t
worry, I’ll help you.”
Awesome-Alice said: “ One times any number is like looking in a mirror; it’s the
same thing.”
Awesome-Alice says: “ Two times any number is double
two each time.”
Awesome-Alice says: “When you do the threes table, remember this: ‘Add up
three, you’ll buzz like a bee’.”
• Awesome-Alice said: “If you want four, or more, just add
four”
• Awesome-Alice said: “For the fives tables, it will always be a five or zero!”
Dyno-Dan said: “ Thank you, Alice; you are AWESOME!!! I learn so much”
The Virus
Countdown Entry #1
Today is the first day of school. I feel sorry for the others,
they play on the play ground, blissfully ignorant to the world around
them. They swing on their swings and slide down their slides, while
the sky slowly darkens.
They remain clueless while I alone know it’s coming. It will
soon be upon us. The terror, the trouble…. The virus.
Countdown Entry #2My name is José, I started the fourth grade less than a
week ago. It’s been the worst school year of my life so far.
Last year all of the third graders noticed that the year was
different, our classes were harder, longer, and the grades went
from words to letters. We were all confused throughout the year but
that wasn’t a big deal…. Until the end of the year, the teachers had
told us about these things called the EOG’s but we didn’t fully
understand. When the day finally came to take them we were all
horrified by the size of the test it was the biggest test we had ever
seen! There were nearly one hundred questions! Per test! It was
the worst three days of our lives.
Countdown Entry #3
The EOG’s are in two days, all of my classmates are
panicking none of them expected this, they had all forgotten about
the test.
I am the only one prepared to accept my fate, I alone am
prepared for the terror. I’ve studied all year while the others goofed
off. I knew the test was coming and I did everything I could to make
it as easy as possible. Yet, I still feel confident that it wont be a
walk in the park.
Countdown Entry #4
It’s over! The test are done and our grades came in
yesterday! I had the highest score in the fourth grade on all of the
EOG’s
I was certain it would be as hard and terrifying as last year
but it was very easy. I knew the test were coming so I studied, and
because I studied and was prepared ahead of time I flew through
the test without a single problem.
Maybe next year everyone will study ahead of time and do
well. I know I will.
