Hello 6th Graders!Are you ready for another four weeks of summer before IT begins?
Some of you are dying to hit the stores to load up on newly sharpened
pencils, spiral bound notebooks, red pens, highlighters, over-sized
binders and plastic boxes to keep all your special treasures in. While many
of you are still fully immersed in summer, without a thought about the upcoming school year.
Well, I hope you are taking full advantage. Here are a few simple, fun things
to do without guilt:
* Eat ice cream everyday.
*Play basketball until you can't see the ball anymore.
(You may want to bring a parent and a flashlight.)
*Go to Coyote Hills for running race down the hill.
(Bring knee pads, or maybe face pads.)
*Roll down a grassy knoll and count how many grass stains
you made on your clothes. (Don't wear white! And if you get
in trouble, you didn't hear it from me!)
*Swim until your skin gets all pruned and wrinkled.
*Mix your favorite drinks together until the liquid is black
and scare your brother or sister.
*Finish everything on your summer reading list.
*Write your own story. If you think it's brilliant, it probably
is…so send it to Stone Soup, or Highlights, or another one
of your favorite children's magazine or online website. (Make
sure you check with your parents first, and don't ever make a
submission if you have to pay for it!)
*Have a picnic at the park with your friends or siblings,
your favorite snacks, and books.
*Take pictures of funny faces. Have your friends take pictures
of your funny faces. Then post them all over your room.
*Invite your friend on a walk around the neighborhood.
Go together to the next friend's house and invite them
for a walk. Keep collecting friends in your neighborhood.
See how many can join you...(but don't get them mad by
eating all their food!)
*Eat ice cream everyday...ooops,…
I think I wrote that one already.
