The 29th of February is an extra day. It happens every four years. What can we do with out extra day?

What to do on Leap Day!

Go to the park.
Spend time with my family.
Go for a holiday.
Sleep, that would be cool

Go to church.
Go shopping for clothes and shoes.
Buy trucks and cars.
Have the day off school.

Go to the beach.
Go to McDonalds with my friends.
Have a BBQ.
Have a swim in the pool.

That's what I would do!





Leap Year Poem

BY MOTHER GOOSE
Thirty days hath September,
April, June and November.
All the rest have thirty-one,
Excepting February alone,
And that has twenty-eight days clear
And twenty-nine in each leap year.

Eathquake by Mr Betts

Students to write their own recount of what happened. Use places, descriptions and a sequence of events. Write how you felt.

There was an earthquake on Saturday. I was sitting on my couch outside in my deck in the back yard when I heard a deep rumbling in the ground. Everything shook violently. It peaked quickly then slowly calmed down. Afterwards I could hear the next door neighbors swimming pools water slapping the side of the pool and splashing onto the ground in the grass. I enjoyed the sway of the deck but was worried that my children were scared.
