Oreo

By Kiley (2nd grade)

Cups rattled and colored leaves blew. My purple hat went flying and then my dog turned bright pink and grew five red eyes! His claws grew three times bigger while his teeth became sharper and sharper! My poor little Oreo! (That’s his name.)

Oreo’s nose turned dark blue as the wind howled and whistled so hard that my blue eyes stung and my hands were frozen in place. Then I looked down . . . I really was freezing! Oh no, I crack! My entire body has frozen. The monster dog has buried me in the blowing bushes! Oreo stood guard as the moaning wind whistled louder than a train.

Suddenly, the sun came out and melted me! Oreo barked and then disappeared in a cloud of black smoke.

My School Is a Great Place to Learn

By Kiley (1st grade)

First of all this is not an essay. It is something about something (which makes it an essay. Great.) My school is awesome and I am going to tell you why. All the friends, teachers, the library, and of course all other classrooms are the great things about my school.

My friends are very nice and great at being funny! My friends have always been a great helping hand. They are very talented. They are very creative. Nothing can go wrong with friends like that.

My teachers on the other hand are mean! Hah! Just kidding! Cool joke huh? Anyway they are very nice and creative in fact. They come up with great ideas for me and my classmates. I love my teachers.

The library is my favorite classroom because of the books. You see I love to read. In fact reading is my favorite subject. It also makes me very comfortable with all those books around me. So books rock!

All the other classrooms are great too. There is space and friendship in the rooms. And that’s why I love my school.
