        I am really excited for winter break! I can’t wait til Christmas and just to relax, but I also got to be productive.  Some ways I can stay productive for ELA during winter break is reading a book. I want to make it my goal to finish Lily’s Crossing. Some ways I can stay productive in math during winter break is to work on khan academy! My goal for khan academy is to be on their for an hour. If I make my two goals by the end of winter break I will give myself a reward!

         I am so excited for Thursday because it is incetive day. Incetive day, is a reward some of the kids got if they went up on two of the map test. I went up on all three map test. So I made it to the incetive day. I choose gym! I didn’t actually want that room, but when I went to get a drink of water to think about what room I was going to be in, but when I got back it said I filled out the form. I was sad but it’s ok because it is a open gym, so that’s kind of fun!

             In my opinion forgiveness means to forgive someone. I am a very forgiving person in my opinion. Some examples of forgiveness in a sentence are “As he begged for forgiveness, she finally forgave him.” A quote using the word forgive is “The weak can never forgive.”  My favorite quote using the word forgiveness is “Forgiveness brings inner joy and inner peace to all life”. I love that quote so much. That is my opinion of what forgiveness means and forgiveness in examples.

         In my opinion, honestly means to be truthful or to tell the truth. I would consider myself honest because when I lie I end up telling the truth a few seconds later. Also because I barely even lie. Some examples of honestly in a sentence is “I honestly don’t know the answer to question five.” Said Emma. Another example is “ Your honestly getting on my nerves. Said Willy.

            Today I took the map test (math) and it was kind of difficult but I feel like I did good, but I could of done better. My fall score was 212 and today I got up four points, so I’m at 216. I’m so happy because now I can make it to the fun room (when map testing is over). I am also really excited because my parents said if I did good on my testing, I’ll get a reward. Some things I could of done better is getting to bed earlier because I was kind of tired while taking my test. But overall I think I did pretty well.

         The day I got my Xbox it was a cold, breezy, snowy day. It was Christmas Eve the day before Christmas and we got to open ONE present. So I picked the squared box with candy cane wrapping paper. I was so happy and all that was going through my head was, “ what is this?”. I smelled the scent of pine and peppermint throughout the air. I also felt a draft of cold wind that was coming from the window but that didn’t stop me from opening my present. My mom said “easy don’t hurt yourself”. All i did was say “yeah ok!” When I started to rip the paper off, I got a deep paper cut but that didn’t stop me. When I saw the box I instantly knew it was a xbox1. I was so happy my mom and dad said “do you like it” and I said “ Yes”. I couldn’t wait till tomorrow to open up my brand new T.V. I got up and hugged both of my parents and said “ Thank You” very happily.
