Welcome to Our Blog!

Our classroom blog was created as a place where we can meet online together to reflect on and explore ideas, share opinions, discuss various topics and also create! I am so excited to be a part of all the learning that is going to go on here and I hope you are, too! Now, what about the name of our blog? The Read Wheelbarrow was chosen as a "play on words" and refers to a very interesting poem (I think) by William Carlos Williams called The Red Wheelbarrow. It is the first of many, many poems we will read and discuss. With it our blogging adventure begins...so, happy blogging everyone!

HAPPY SNOW DAY EVERYONE!!!!

It seems like we should all be celebrating this happy event together somehow, but then I guess it would not be a Snow Day!! :) Anyway, my first thought was of all of you today and how much fun you would have in the snow...and no Social Studies test, either! ;) I thought I would need to shovel the snow so I could get my car out of my driveway and off to Norman Cook early, but instead I am writing a haiku on our blog:

Norman Cook Snow Day!
Classroom's dark, our books can sleep
Celebrate the snow!





(PS: I don't think the poor groundhog is going to see his shadow today!! Does that mean that Spring is almost here??!!)

    On the snow day we played video games at my house because it was too cold to go outside. Also we read some books because sometimes if you play too much video games it gets boring so we read some books and we ate some nice warm soup and noodles. P.S we had some sleep too

    Nice haiku Msr.K I liked it. On the snow day I went to a family friends house because my parents had to go to work. Dont worry Mrs.K I read and I did my book report I didn't play all day. I played on my dsi on the snow day, I watched tv and I had pizza.

    (arafat) My snow day was pretty good and pretty bad. The bad part was that I couldn't go to any of my friends house because there is too much snow. The good part was that I could play my xbox and my computer or watch t.v. and school was closed!!!!!! (nedim) My snow day was good and bad. T he bad part was that I couldn't go anywhere because there was too much snow. The good part was that I got to play my wii and go on my computer!!!!!!!
    Now presenting the haiku that arafat and nedim wrote:

    Snow Day

    There is too much snow
    Would you like to make a fort
    Snow is cool for us!!!!!!
