The New Person

-

 


     It was an ordinary Tuesday, school, and at that time I was just walking in.

     When I got there I said good morning to the teacher at the door, Ms. Bloch. I walked up the empty stairs. They were empty because I was behind a few minutes and everyone was already upstairs in the classroom.

     When I got to the top, I pushed the handle to open the door and walked up to my classroom. The halls were quiet and I could not hear a peep. I wondered why. The halls were normally loud as the gymnasium when the whole school was sitting in there.

     When I walked in, there was a lady sitting at my teacher´s desk. That wasn´t the weird thing. The weird thing was that I thought my teacher was out, but he was standing there too. WEIRD!!!

     I still walked to my desk and acted normal. I put my stuff in my cubbie and then walked back to my desk. I pulled out my work packet and worked for a half hour. 

     Then we all went around the room for morning meeting and the strange lady followed us. 

     ¨ Everyone,¨ Mr. Stillway started. ¨ this is Andrea. She used to be one of my students and is here for the student teacher job.¨ My teacher said. 

     We all now knew why she was here and who she was. Now it was clear. And now it made so mush more sense than what I was thinking. I thought she was a lady who was just going to sit there the whole day!!!

    I love the way you created mystery around this person in your classroom. I was really wondering who she was. Now I know....a student teacher!

    I love how you made this into a mystery. I wonder if you will share this slice with Andrea some day.

Dance

-
  An anxious feeling filled my body as I sat patiently, waiting onstage for my numbers to be called. “ You did great in all of your dances,” I told myself. " Why are you getting so nervous? It won't change anything. “ Thinking this just made the anxiousness get worse. The awards had just started, and my first number had been called. “ Featherstone… Platinum.” The announcer called. This was my contemporary dance, my favorite dance this season. In case you didn't know, your dances were ranked with Gold being the lowest and then going High Gold, Platinum, and then Diamond being the highest. My friend Madison went up to retrieve the trophy and pins, and I smiled in relief that we did pretty well. After a couple of dances, one of my dances was called again: “ Sweet Dreams… Diamond.” With this being called, all of my nerves left me, and joy perked up right there in its place. “ Sweet Dreams”  was my jazz dance, and I was proud of everyone in the group because we had made much pr...

Locked

-
  It was a dark and breezy winter night and I was coming home from my my mom's friends daughters dance recital. I was so much fun and everyone did great! When we got home we parked the car in the garage and we ran to the door because we were so tired.  My sister opened the door and said,¨ It is locked.¨ Everyone tried opening the door but it was definitely locked. No one knew what to do, but my mom unlocked the car and we all went in, except for daddy. ¨Can I honk the horn?¨ I asked Mom. She said no. We were sitting in the front seat because we never get to go in the front. I kept touching all the parts of the steering wheel, trying to find where the horn was hidden. We started opening compartments and touching the mirror. We were actually having fun. HONK!!! The horn finally honked and everyone laughed except for mom.  ¨ I told you no.¨ Mom said. ¨Wait!¨ I screamed I was looking out the window at dad. And then suddenly I started to laugh! ¨What are you laughing at?¨ My s...

The ¨ Farm ¨

-
¨ I love the farm.¨ My sister shouted at us, and I felt pretty much the same. We were going to a farm on a random day so I was a little confused. My mom and dad never let us go places for no reason. We all got in the car and we went in the car for a long time just driving and driving. Then we reached ¨ The farm.¨ but the farm was not a farm. It was a bunch of plants in a greenhouse I thought what was that we are at a garden. My mom said that it wasn't exactly a farm she said it was more of a garden with animals. We walked to the greenhouse to look at plants for relatives for Easter. We found quite a few things. We looked at Garden toys but we couldn't really find anything so we went outside in the back. There were ducks walking on the path but they were gated up they were in a cage though. Then we looked in a cage and there were peacock a few goats that my sister was really excited about because she loves goats.  Then we went back inside to look at flowers in the other house. W...
