Ocean Wildlife

What is on our class mural?

In January, our class made a three-layer mural consisting of all the different ocean wildlife mammals. Students painted the top layer and drew the underwater creatures on black construction paper using chalk and pastels.

We had soo much fun...what will be next?

Hi Suchi!

What are you looking at?
Anything interesting to report to the class?

Please Write Back!!!

Love,

True Friends...

Help you see the forest before the trees.
Keep secrets.
Are the best mirrors.
Always give words of encouragements.
Share memories of the good old days-and dreams of days to come.
Light up your life when you’re in the dark.
Remember your birthday but forget your age.
Know laughter can be the best medicine.
Hear old stories with new ears.
Allow you to think out loud.
Read you a book.
Are on time (most of the time)
Are there at every turn of the road.
Like fine wine, are better with time.
Find comfort in the little things.
Listen when no one else hears.
Will tell you when an outfit is not you.
Are not offended when you put them on hold.
Don’t always agree.
Love you for who you are.
Pick you up when you’re feeling down.
Remind you to have a sense of humor about yourself.
Enjoy sharing special talents.
See you through love lost and weight gained.
Like good health, are even more valued when they are lost.
Help you stretch your mind as well as your body.
Make going to the smallest place like an adventure.
Never feel far apart even when oceans are between them.
Share good advice.
Share gossip and never tell.
Help you when going gets tough.
Share a philosophy of life.
Share thoughts and dreams.
Welcome a storm in search of a rainbow.

You'll Never Believed What Happened to Me...


I once went to China; it was a lot of fun. I watched a small television at my neighbor's house. I liked it because I could watch for a very long time. My grandpa went to buy me yummy breakfast everyday: fresh soy mild and fried strip thing made of wheat flour. I went to the Yellow Mountain with my mom, brother, cousin, uncle and my aunt. I rode on a big boat and climbed the mountain. My mom took to Suzhou with my brother and cousin. At Suzhou, I went to a lot of beautiful parks, peeled lotus seeds and look at ants under a big ancient tower. I also played at a toyland and an arcade. I stayed in a hotel in Suzhou. We stayed there for three days before I went back to my grandparent's house.

Love always, Miss Lou
