Winter Wonderland

I awake. I’m freezing cold. I look out my window and there I see snowflakes falling, snow everywhere, where ever I look. I look I see a glossy sheet of snow. I run downstairs, smell-ing sweet pancakes, hash browns, eggs, sausage, and my favorite, bacon. I eat breakfast quickly. After I take care of my dishes, I put on my snow stuff. I first shovel the driveway. Then the sidewalk. Finally I call Nicole. She’s my best friend. We had snowball fights, made forts, played Eskimo, and made snow angels, made a snowman, and his dog. And my favorite activity, making a snow record by making the biggest snow ball. I can’t wait till the next winter!

Strong winds blowing past you. Lots and lots of snow everywhere. Oh no

it’s time for school!

Once upon a Christmas, I the little Elf Angelo, traveled through the dense snow lollipops passed the seven levels of the candy cane for-est, through the sea of swirly-twirly gum drops and up the elevator of frosting. All of this was to help Santa prepare his sleigh on his mid-night shift in Seattle. by Jacqueline grade 2

How to Build a Snowman

This how you build a perfect snow-man. First, you roll three snowballs,

One large, one medium, and one small. Next, you stack the three

snowballs smallest to largest. Then you get some buttons for the shirts,

the mouth, and the eyes. You need a carrot for the nose. And for decora-

tions a hat, gloves, and a scarf. Finally, you put everything in place

and you have a perfect snowman.

One cold winter day a little girl who lived in Illinois went to the lake by Erickson School to play in the snow. She saw a sign for a winter amusement park so she decided to run home and get her family. When she got home she told her sister and her sister said, “Oh I’ve heard about it and I don’t want you going.” But on opening day the little girl went to the amusement park. She saw this ride that was a roller coaster on the lake so she jumped into the last cart and they were off. All of a sudden she heard a splash so she looked down at the frozen lake and saw that it had cracked. And then her cart fell. She screamed for help and some-body went to help her. But by the time they got there the lake was completely frozen over. And now because of sorrow from not listening to her sister anyone who goes to Erickson lake during the winter to play in the snow or any other activity her soul will haunt them.

Snowy flakes No flowers Outdoor fun Winter wonderland Flakey fun Laughing children A snowball fight Knitted scarves Every flake is different by Claire grade 3 Winter is my favorite time of year. I always make snowmen. Some-times I make them look like TV characters. One time I made all of the Sponge Bob characters. I wish I could put food coloring on them. And if they are clean snow make snow cones out of it, but if it is dirty snow I will make one snow cone out of it and give it to my sis-ter. But that is just a wish so in-stead I will attack my sister with snowballs

I love my snowman. It has sticks for its arms. It has blueberries for its eyes and mouth. It has a carrot for its nose. by Josh grade 2

Once upon a time I fell fast asleep on Christmas Eve. I heard a noise in the middle of the night only to be frightened by the dancing nutcrackers. There were eight boys and one girl and one snowman all looking at me. I rubbed my tired eyes but they didn’t go away. They pulled me out of bed, put my robe on and walked me to the train. Santa Claus was the conductor. He shouted, “Off we go!” We arrived in Alaska to deliver the children’s presents. We saw many igloos and one million elves. The elves jumped on the train with us and started to sing Christmas songs! by Jacqueline grade 2
