Pretty, active
Shopping, babysitting, singing
Older sister, boat, jewelry, Chelsea
Dancing, swimming, designing
Blondie, funny

Darkness

Darkness
Foggy, mystical
Hear the crickets
Tired, falling asleep now
Night

Music, dancing
Screaming, jumping, friends
Excited, happy, anxious, joy

Carnival

Carnival
Rides, cotton candy
Spinning like crazy
Butterflies flipping in my stomach
Fair

Wet, cool
Splashing, jumping, diving
Happy, full of joy

Lakes are Great

Lakes
Refreshing, sandy
Fishing and swimming
Warm but sometimes cold
Swimming

My Mom

Tara
Humorous, gorgeous
Glowing, loving, caring
She is a saleswoman for Apple
Shopping, laughing, playing
Beautiful, funny
Mom

Dark as midnight
Makes me feel worried

Relaxing, smooth
Tubing is fun
Boats are flying by

Welcome to the Jungle!

We are a classroom of spirited 5th graders. Our jungle is located at Crooked River Elementary School located in Casco, Maine, USA. This blog will, in the very near future contain posts which will display the writings of 5th grade students in our classroom. Our teacher, Mrs. Albert, will post our writing in the hopes that we may get some feedback and constructive critism. We are doing this to broaden our writing audience and to make the editing process more effective. So, check back here in the weeks to come to view our work and provide some feedback that will help us out or give us a pat on the back. If you are a teacher and are doing a similar blog with your students, we would love to know about it so that we can provide feedback for your kids too. Please email Mrs. Albert at calbert@sad61.k12.me.us
