Fall
Story
Block B Reading
One fall day as I was walking down a path, something hit my head. I looked up
and saw a squirrel eating an acorn. He had a bushy tail. His fur looked warm.
He must be getting ready for winter! I could see many acorns in his nest.
The air was getting cooler so I put on my sweater. I knew it was getting late so I better hurry up and get home for dinner.
From Mrs. Henke’s reading class, 2nd grade

acorns. They are getting ready for the winter. The squirrel has soft, brown
fur and a bushy tail.

I know about sharks. I know that one or two sharks are fast swimmers. And some sharks are big and some are small. Sharks have different kinds of teeth and they are different shapes. Most sharks have pointy teeth but a whale shark has small teeth like a baby’s teeth. By Isabella Alvear-Jimenez
My dogs are fun. We like to play with them. I like them. I see them every day.

Yesterday I went to the Scobee Planetarium. The planetarium look like a dome to me. We saw all the planets but Pluto is a dwarf planet. It was cool in the planetarium and quiet in the planetarium. Almost everybody was there and it was fun in there.
By Abigail Medina, 2nd grade
Yesterday I went to the Scobee Planetarium. It was in San Antonio. And we were pretending we were in a real rocket ship in space. We saw Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Neptune, Uranus and Pluto. Mercury is the closest planet to the sun. Pluto is not a planet, it is a dwarf planet. The sun is a star.
By Victoria Martinez

CHRISTMAS IN ENGLAND
Did you know Christmas cards are over 100 years old? And you know Father Christmas is like our Santa Claus. You and I know that they burn the Yule log and they have good luck. I know that the Yule log burns for about 12 hours. Most of our Christmas carols come from England.
By Travis Jones, 2nd grade
Christmas cards come from England. Some of the Christmas carols come from England. In England you burn a Yule log for twelve hours and the ashes you save for next year. Father Christmas looks like our Santa.
By Raymond Sauceda, 2nd grade
The person that gives the presents is Father Christmas. In England they burn a Yule log and they save the dust from the Yule log. They sprinkle the dust on the new one and it brings good luck to them.

Under my tree I see an elf looking at me…OOOOOOOOOOO! An elf with big pointie ears and I saw his nose and Santa too. I saw a lot of them everywhere around my house…outside too and at my friend’s and at the store. I went to the North Pole but look! There are no elves there. I wonder if there are some in Santa’s workshop?
