Gracy's working on writing essays in Literature and Creative Writing. She needed to write an essay using the outline:
I. God knows me
II. God helps me
III. God wants to use me
Her book then asked questions regarding each section to help lead her to forming appropriate paragraphs. English, Spelling, and Writing are the areas she's needing quite a bit of work in, but she's starting to put it all together.

I Am Yours Lord

My name is Gracy. I am a kind person. I think it is very important to have Godly character. I think so because it pleases God and our family. I feel I am smart, friendly and funny. I wish I was more faithful and trustworthy.

I am like David because when tempted I pray. Also usually I do the right thing, but sometimes I do wrong. Many times I have been tempted to cheat on my work but I never do. I never cheat because it is wrong to cheat.

There where many shepherd boys in Israel. I think God chose David because of his faith, love, and trust in God. I know God has a special plan for me. I think his plan is for me to show me how to do what he wants.

Directions:

Think of three actions each of these words could do. Write these action vers on the lines.

rains
rulls

by Maggie

Maggie had an assignment this week in Literature and Creative Writing to write an anecdote. Her book explained what an anecdote is, she read examples of anecdotes, and then walked her through writing an anecdote step by step. Somehow, I don't think she quite got it...but it's a start. Here's Maggie's anecdote:

My birthday

My birthday was comeng up. Megan and I could not see each other for a little bit. Because we spray payinted it and I got intruble alot. On my birthday she came to my house with my birthday present. We played with my blendy pens for a little bit. Then she apolagized. Then we were friends again. We had cake, which was soooooooooooooo good. Then my dad picked me up.

The End!!
