Abebech went to Paris!






Jayleen spent her summer in Puerto Rico!








Cedric and Lucas at a Yankees game.



Luke and his sister went horseback riding at Sky Farm!  Luke looks like such a natural on that horse!





Lucas went fishing at Kueka Lake and caught two fish! Here he is holding the sunfish he caught!



Abby wanted to share a photo of the Declaration of Independence from the main library and her cat, Fleur. Check it out!

Hey all!  Just received summer photos from Cedric.  He visited Niagara Falls and a re-enactment of the battle of Chippawa.  So very cool!

  16. Right now I am in Miami visiting my Grandma. We're planning to go the beach soon and I can't wait. Today it is raining hard with thunder and lightning. A few days ago was my sister's birthday and we went to Chuck E Cheese's and had a lot of fun. We have been eating a lot of mangos from my Grandma's tree. She also has pineapples, coconut, advocados, green bananas, oranges, papaya trees and all the good stuff :-) I have read 4 books and I have just started another one!

    1. Hi Kameron,
      Sounds like you are having loads of fun with your grandma. Her backyard sounds amazing. You are living a reading life. I have just finished reading three chapter books that I plan to teach as a read aloud to the class. I really enjoyed them and know you will too. Happy summer and love to you and your family.

    1. Hi Shayma,
      This would make a great journal entry for your writer's notebook. Having your dad teach you to float and fish is a special memory for you.

  22. In June, we went to Sunapee New Hampshire. My cousins and I played with glowsticks at night, outside the house we stayed at.

    We also went to Chocorua, New Hampshire in a cabin. There was also a porcupine there that woke us up at 3:00 am, it chewed up the cabin.

    Just before school started, we went to Coney Island on some fun rides. The rides we went on were a roller coaster (The Tickler), The Wonder Wheel, and the Wild River.
