How do you celebrate the end of the school year?

Arizona Festivals

For Student Blogging Challenge #2, I'm going to tell about the festivals in our area. I know of one of them and my friend, Serena, will help write the other two because she has been to them.

(I think) Red Baron & me 

1. Japanese Matsuri Festival 
We got to see the drums, and there was lots of food. People were dressed up in anime costumes or traditional Japanese clothes.


2. Lost Dutchman Rodeo Days
There are so many people, and horses. There is bronc riding and barrel racing. The food is amazing, and the music is great!


3. Renaissance Festival

 Some rights reserved by Khem ☺

The Renaissance Festival shows you what it was like to live in Medieval  times. There are people dressed in costumes and interacting with you. There are people running around interacting with you like you are one of them. They have giant turkey legs too!

If you were visiting us, which festival sounds the most interesting to you?

About Me

For Student Blogging Challenge #1, I want to update my About Me page and change one of the pictures. I want to take off the picture of me with the star fish. Which picture should I put there instead?

1. Here I am with a nice smile.

"A nice smile."

2. I'm being goofy. I put my shin guards on my head and pretended they were ears.

"Goofy me."

3. A picture of me playing soccer.

"Soccer me."

4. I love drawing and art.

"Artist me."

Read Across America Week

It's Read Across America Week at my school. We learned new words, and we are reading in reading groups. Every day we are doing something special.

Tomorrow, we can dress up for Cat in the Hat Day by wearing red, white and black. I want my mom to draw whiskers on my face.

I started asking everyone at home if they like to read. Now I want to know if you do. Will you answer my question by voting?

On Friday, I get to dress as my favorite character. I need help because I like so many.

Who should I dress up as?

Santa Saw My Christmas Note on My Blog!

Guess what I had under the tree on Christmas morning?

It was surprising. 


Even Davo had a gift! Guess what it was? It was a candy bar.

Did you ever get a magical gift?
Did you ever give a special gift?

Christmas Time

For Christmas, I already got one thing I wanted, and that's for Davo to stay with us.

The other thing I really want is a new desk. I wrote Santa a note, but I am worried he won't get it in time. So, I thought I could put it on my blog, but I don't know if Santa will see it:

Does Santa know how to blog? And if so, will he get my list?

Will you help me by taking the poll?

Vegemite Power!

Miss W came to my class. She was talking to us, and asking questions and answering our questions about animals in Australia. 


She showed us some stuff in her bag. She had Davo and she had the card with a Tasmanian Devil on it.


She also brought Vegemite for us to try another day. So, my mom came to our class to help us try out the Vegemite, and that was our snack. 


Here's a show I made for you about our trying Vegemite:

We ate our Vegemite on plain crackers with butter and a tiny amount of Vegemite. I loved it. It reminded me of soy sauce, and I love adding soy sauce to my food, especially rice, vegetables, and chicken.

Have you had food from a different country? Did you like it?

Have you ever had Vegemite? If so, did you like it?

How do you like to eat your Vegemite?
