Will's Awesome!

Hannah's Awesome!

My awesome picture is a flower. I think it’s awesome because they remind me of summer and they look really, really pretty! My flower has a green stem and a yellow middle with orange and red petals. I chose to do a flower because I love flowers and a lily is my favourite kind of flower! I chose to use these colours because they all look really good together!

Dawson's Awesome!

MY PICTURE IS AWESOME BECAUSE I LIKE ANTS AND ANTS ARE SMALL INTERESTING ANIMALS. THEY DO NOT HURT AND SOME CAN BITE. BUT REALLY NOT A HARMLESS ANIMAL. THAT’S WHY I PICKED THE ANT!!!

Naomi's Awesome!

My awesome picture is of two people (me and my neighbor Evelyn) in downtown Kingston watching the fireworks on Canada Day. I think that is awesome because last year (2010) my family and my neighbours went to town to see the fireworks. I had a lot of fun because it was right beside the water and I had a great view of the fireworks. I had a lot of fun and I hope to do it again.

Evan's Awesome!

My picture is awesome because it’s of nature.
It creates air so you can breathe. It is also used as healthy food like apples, oranges, peaches, strawberries and bananas.
The nice, green grass, nice brown trees.
The forest is animals' homes where they live.

Keaton's Awesome!

Awesome is a Sunset! Across the sky you see an incoming bird! You look at the little fish nibbling at your toes! You see a Beautiful Breaching Orca on the Horizon! The clouds in the sky look like Delicious Cotton Candy!

Thomas' Awesome

Ants running on the grass is awesome. Clouds floating in the sky are awesome. Huge trees waving in the air are awesome.
Ants are awesome because they are tiny and they can run really fast with all their legs. Trees are awesome because they come from a tiny seed and become huge.

Lily's Awesome!

I think summer is AWESOME and in the summer I love love watching dragonflies. And I love climbing trees with friends or my family. And I love looking up at the the clouds with Madison and Ava and thats why I put some clouds a tree and a dragonfly in my awesome picture.

Megan's Awesome!

Awesome
When the sun blows on your face and you have a warm fuzzy feeling. And when you see horses grazing along the grass it feels awesome. Even riding horses is awesome!!! When you taste the great and sweet clover you glow up so high!!!! When you watch the sky turn lighter blue as the day goes on that is all so awesome!!!

Damien's Awesome!

Awesome Seeing a sunset in the mountains is just awesome. It is because of the colour of the sky. There is red, orange and yellow. I like seeing it when we go to New Brunswick in the car.

Emma's Awesome!

My awesome moment is when I’m painting. I love letting my imagination run wild as I paint with bright blues, deep purples and soft pinks. My plasticene picture is of a paint brush and a palette. My background is yellow, turquoise and blue. I made the paint brush and the palette after that. I then put pink, yellow, blue, green, orange and red plasticene on my palette for the paint. There is orange ‘ paint ‘ on the tip of my plasticene brush so I had to put orange plasticene on the palette. I usually paint on the kitchen table in my house but sometimes I paint on my easel in my room.

Rhianna's Awesome!

Awesome


Camp fires are awesome because I love sitting by the fire and looking up at the stars on a beautiful summer night. It’s also awesome when I hear the fire crackle. It’s awesome making delicious marshmallows on a nice camp fire
Awesome!

Alyssa's Awesome!

Ray's Awesome!

My picture is an ant. When I first went camping and there were a lot of ants and animals . That moment was awesome because it was the first time I had EVER gone camping. Now we always go camping.

Sarah's Awesome!

My picture is a spider web with dew on it in the summer . I think it is wonderful to look at in the summer because the spider web is wet and shimmering.

Cole's Awesome!

My picture is a awesome because it is a dragon and the dragon represents heights. I like dragons because they are cool and there is a movie called How to Train your Dragon. The dragon,s name is Toothy The Dragon and he can fly 490 miles per hour. He is black, yellow and red and green. He is a night furry in How to Train your Dragon. It never steals. It never misses.

Ava's Awesome!

My plasticine picture is of my mom cutting the grass. I like the smell of grass that just got cut. A couple nights ago my mom cut the grass and when I went outside to go to Taylor’s to see if she wanted to play I could smell the grass. Then Owen started to throw it at me. So I started riding and that’s something that is AWESOME!!! to me.

Gracee's Awesome!

My picture of awesome is about sitting at the fire listening to it crackle and watching fireflys. I think sitting at a fire is cool because it reminds me of camping. I really love camping even though I haven’t gone that many times. I also like to watch fireflies because you can see them flashing in the dark.

Taylor's Awesome!

I think the sound of the leaves wooshing in the air is awesome. Also I love the sound of the leaves crunching beneath you when you jump into a big bunch of leaves.

Kaylee's Awesome!

My plasticine picture is about summer. I think summer is awesome because you can do fun summer activities like swimming and eating ice cream and stuff like that. My picture has a flower and a butterfly in it. I chose to do summer because it is my favourite time of year.

Trip to Queen's


On Tuesday June 7 Ms Jordan and Mrs Dressel's class went to Queen's sports day. Our favourite sport was racquetball. Racquetball is a sport that you hit a super bouncy ball against a wall. It is like squash except squash has a non bouncy balls and they are black. Squash balls are smaller than a racquetball. We had 4 people in each court. Our court had 5 people and it was fun because we got to play racquetball.

QUEENS SPORTS DAY !!!!



QUEENS sports day!!!!

On Tuesday June 7 our class went to Queen's University for a sports day. The events that we did were racquet ball, martial arts, swimming, badminton, field hockey, and fencing. The first thing that we did when we got off the bus was we met our instructor named Emily. Then we went to our locker room and put our bags in our locker. The first sport was our favourite sport (see picture down below) the sport was called racquet ball. It was sooooooo FUN!!!!!! We got into groups of 3 or 4 and we were in this little room and we had goggles and a racquetball (very bouncy!!) We were on a team with Taylor Acorn, Gracee Fillion and Alyssa Campbell. The object of the game was to hit the ball on the wall and hit it back but it can bounce only once on the ground. The 2nd thing that we did was called Martial arts. We learned fancy kicks and punches. Then they got out a dumby and a punching mat and we punched the mat and kicked the dumby. After we all got a turn we played a game called FLAGS. We all got a piece of ribbon and put it on our shorts and if some one took it off of your shorts you have to go and sit down. Then we went to the swimming pool. They had a really high high dive. We all went on it like, 4 times. If you look up at a roof it was probably higher than that!!! We had to do this swim test and we swam for a long time without touching the bottom. But it was all worth it! After we jumped we went to the swimming part and had races with each other. Once we were done having races we went in to the shallow end and played. Then we had to go and get changed for field hockey we played pinnies VS shirts we had a lot of fun playing it !! Then we went to the gym to start fencing.
We got dressed for it and we began. we had swords with duct tape on the end so we didn't hurt anyone, (we were wearing helmets). It was outrageously fun!!

Sports day at Queen's University



On Tuesday June 7th Mrs. Dressel's grade 4 class went to Queen's University for sports day. We did lots of activities like: Fencing, Field hockey, swimming, badminton and racquetball. When it was time for us to do field hockey the grass was fake which made it feel really cool. Taylor and I were both on the shirt team and we were against the pinney team. It was really fun using field hockey sticks because they are pretty different compared to hockey sticks. For most people it was their first time playing. when it was time for swimming we had to do a swim test to be able to go to the dive tank. The diving boards were so much fun!! When we played racquetball you had to try not to hit the ball to high up but I am pretty sure everyone hit it above the red line a couple times. I loved that game!!!! We also did karate and we learned blocks and punches and kicks it was really fun! The person that was teaching us was really good at karate!! He could jump and kick at the same time!! WOW!!! When we did fencing we had to put on all the heavy gear and it was all white. Our weapons had plastic tips at the end so no one would get hurt when they were fencing against other people. It was a really fun day and everyone loved it. I hope we go back next year!

In the pool I went in the shallow end and Malaina went in the deep end and she went off the diving board. The lunch room was messy but we got free Fruitopia. We thanked the janitor for cleaning up the floors and we headed down to the gym to play Badminton. The next sport we did was badminton and I was playing with Sarah,Cole, and Emma. On Malaina`s team it was Rhianna, Malaina, William and Thomas. Then we did Field hockey and we got to take a walk to the field. At the end we had no idea who won. Then my favourite... ... Fencing!!
