Episode 34 - All About Emmee at K-Grad.



Each kid got their diploma one by one. Here was my moment in the spotlight.
Here's what was said.
Mrs. Kaye: Emmalynn Jones. Her favorite color is green. Her favorite thing about school is Mrs. Riley and Mrs. Kaye. And when she grows up she wants to be a teacher.

Episode 33 - Kindergarten Graduation

For while it seemed endless, but graduation day finally came. I have successfully finished my first year of public school.
Here's me sitting in my chair at the graduation. There were almost 100 kids in my graduation class!

Here I am walking out with my diploma.

This is my teacher Mrs. Riley. I loved it when she gave us snacks, and when she sharpened my pencils when I needed her to.

And here is my teacher's aid, Mrs. Kaye. I like her because she's really nice to give us treats too.

Here are some of my friends, Elisabeth and Lacey.

And some more, me, Shaneiska, Filicity, Shakeiska, and Lacey.

Here's the table I sat at to do my work.

Here's my family. (some people just don't know how to work my mom's camera)

Here's my awesome dad, who left work just to come! Of course he had to leave right away and go back.

Here's my awesome mom. She was the room mom this year and brought in lots of stuff all the time. I think Mrs. Riley is going to miss her the most.

And last of all, here's my little sister, Cassidee, who wants to be just like me when she grows up.

Episode 32 - Field Day

Today was a fun day at school. We had field day. We rotated through a bunch of games and activities with the other Kindergarten, 1st and 2nd grade classes.
My favorite game was the popcorn game. We all took a part of a giant parachute thing and bounced balls around it.
My other favorite game was a tug of war with a really big rope.
My mom couldn't come and take pictures cause Cassee's preschool grad. was today as well.
My mom said that when she was a little girl they called it "play day". Instead of fun games and water fun, they actually did races and contests. My mom said she was awesome at that and got ribbons in almost everything. Lucky her.
I had fun anyway without ribbons.

Episode 31 - The "Shindig" Fieldtrip

This week I had my first ... and second...field trip of my year in Kindergarten.
On Thursday we went to see the movie Oceans. It was in a movie theatre and I got popcorn and pop! It was awesome.
Then on Friday we went to this thing called the Shindig. I really didn't know what that meant. My mom went on both fieldtrips, but she only rode the bus on Friday. It was fun, I got to sit by her.
Anyway, this Shindig turned out to be this choir performance by one of the high schools here (even though we actually went to the college to see it). This choir was the state champion of 2010.
The theme was all about super heros. They did songs about a whole bunch of them. Superman, Spiderman, Batman, Mighty Mouse (I have no idea who that is anyway), Underdog, Mario and Luigi, and some others I can't remember. It was pretty fun to watch. They did a lot of dancing around instead of just standing there like other choirs.
When we went outside Ms. Underpants was standing there, so my mom took a picture of her with me and my friends.
You can't really see because I am standing in front of her, but she has boy underwear on OVER her pants. It looked really funny!

Here's my class on the bus.
My teacher, Mrs. Riley, is on the bottom on the left of that picture.

On the way home something crazy happened. A kid on the sidewalk threw a ROCK and it hit our window and broke it. It broke next to Mrs. Riley. My mom even got hit by a piece of the glass. Here's what the window looked like.
It looked kind of cool. The whole window was broken into a hundred million little pieces, even though only that little hole was the only part that actually fell out.

Here's what the window looked like from the outside.
Two field trips two days in a row! What an awesome week for me!!!!!
