We have been working on our writing skills for 68 "glorious"  days...and it's a process!   This exercise started out with the idea of TOPICS...mainly staying ON topic and after a couple of weeks of reading stories, figuring out the topics and picking three topics of our own...we whittled it down to the topic they felt comfortable writing about.  The kids, armed with their personal dictionaries and sharpened pencils, started off on their "sloppy copies".  After much consulting with Mrs. Allspaw and I and plenty of editing, we finished our works.  Please enjoy the following five stories by Audrey, Simeon, Ella, Lauren and Makenna.

Thank you Margaret Zore for getting pregnant and making
this all possible!

Mrs. Kappel allows running in the house ...wow!

Contractions fascinate Makenna...you gotta love this kid or worry...not for sure which!

Mrs. Allspaw verified that Lauren's brother does eat this
many popsicles a day...????

As a cat lover this one just tickles me as I've played the
same game with my cat...just never gave it a name.

There is one more I am dying to share but Mallory didn't get to her finished copy today as she had to jet off to Disney World for Thanksgiving.  It's title is...wait for it..................
My Boring Cousin and My Fun Cousin.    It's a classic!
