My Grandma

My grandmas light face
With blond hair and
Sparkling blue eyes
Always happy and enjoying
Her life.

I picture her with sunny skies
And no clouds
So I can see her
Perfectly above.

I remember her old rough voice
As I ask myself “Why cigarettes?”

As I think about her over and over again
I feel lost
I feel like everything just left
There’s nothing around anymore
No dinner or celebrating holidays with her.

But someday I know
She will find her way back
And never leave again.

Please
Comeback
Comeback

Bye Bye Snowman

My animation is about a snowman that just had a very bad day... though its about to get worse. Bob or this animated snowman has just gotten fired so his boss threw him out of the igloo. Then without paying any attention Bob accidentally went through a pair of fireworks that the other snowmen and snow-women were lighting. Fortunately Bob walked away with minor burns and survived the worst day of his life.

This snowman animation took a lot of effort and took me almost three computer classes to complete with almost fifteen pages and I had a blast doing it. I hope we will be able to make another animation this year.

!Humor is involved also!

Yankee Doodle Remix

For our groups social studies song we took the song Yankee Doodle and changed the words to all about battles and wars like the Revolutionary War. It was really fun making our song and it was alot of fun to learn about the American Revolution in social studies.

Conference

In April 2008 Le Jardin Academy's fifth grade held a parent student conference. During the conference the student went through their grades with their parents and worked on math tessellations and other things. We also made a six-window poem about our favorite thing or place. I had a great time at the conference!
