Bert

Bert is the school pet,  he is a boy turtle.
We like Bert because he is funny.
We have him because it is nice to have something to bite the teacher.   He bit the teacher  Mrs. P on the finger once and she said it really hurt,
It was funny.
We have to feed Bert  once a day and twice on Fridays.
He is a big turtle and he is green.

A New Teacher

At the beginning of the the year, we got a new teacher.  She is so cool!  I also love it when she tells the juniors off.   Oh, and her name is 'the Onceler'  (dun dun dun) she sounds like Mrs.P.  I like to tease her by saying "hi Mrs.P.'' When she tells the juniors off I "say go Mrs.P.''  She  is also our art teacher.  She can be strict and she can be really funny when she wants to be. I think she is one of the best teachers we've ever had. ;)

The Rush

The adrenalin going through my body

George counting down 5, 4, 

Woody barking at me  

3, 2, 1

JUMP!

The cold chill through my body

I swim frantically towards 

The rocks
