Pokemon

This week I went to Math Camp. I got a new stuffed animal called pokemon and I got a pokemon gamecard from Burger King. I worked on a 100 chart. You have to count all the way to 100 with no numbers on the chart. You have to draw them all. We play games in the computer lab that are rather unusual. I don't know the games. I see Jeremy at Math camp and at science camp I saw Angel. We played with pattern blocks. You dont make patterns with them. You make stuff with them. They are 2D.

Brad and Abbey got a new house. It is bigger than their old house. They could roller skate in their basement! They have a nice upstairs. There was a humongous bathroom and a humongous bath tub and the shower was small and separate. The bathtub looked like a sink. A LARGE sink.

We are getting ready to go on vacation to Montana. Cousin Casey is coming!

I cant think of anything else. Goodbye.

Comments

I really like reading all of your comments. It is really fun! I want to answer some of your questions.

From Anne:


When are you starting school? Do you know who your teacher for this year yet?

I am starting school at the end of August. I do not know who my teacher is for this year yet. I am going to first grade this year. I am going to a new school called Olde Sawmill Elementary. They have a big playground. It has tires, and there is a tire bridge there. It is hard to cross!


From Matthew:

What did moths do at night before electricity?

I dont know! They just flew around. Maybe they flew towards the moon.


From Grandpa Jim:

How is you brother doing?

He is doing good.

From Uncle Brad:

I hope Bryan was gentle when he pulled your tooth out. Did it hurt?

It kinda hurt.


Thank you for your questions! Please ask more!

Love,
Riley

Zoombezi Bay!

I went on four water slides. A humongous one and a couple of small ones. The first one we went on was pretty fast. It was curvy. The second water slide was squiggly. The humongous one was straight and bumpy. It was big. It was like 100 feet tall! I saw Spencer from my baseball team at Zoombezi Bay. He went down the squiggly slide with us. Grandpa Jim didn't go down slides. Elizabeth was scared because she is afraid of heights. There was this cool water slide called Storm Ride. It was shaped like a funnel. It got smaller and smaller. You go down a water slide until you get to the tub and then when you get in the funnel you go to side to side. I did not go on it though. It was my first time at Zoombezi Bay! It was with Elizabeth and Grandpa Jim.

Today is July 25, 2008.

Today at Science Camp, we did experiments. We did four experiments. The first experiment was putting pepper into a cup of water. It bubbled. We rubbed a finger in soap and put it in the water with the pepper, and the pepper spread apart. I cant remember the second experiment. The third experiment was with raisins and craisins and soda. We put the raisins and craisins in the soda. It got lots of bubble and the raisin floated up. Mine was going up and down, dancing. Then we played with slime. Mr. B. made the slime. The slime was orange. It felt gooey and cold. It was sticky. Peyton was covered from chin to hair. Peyton is from my baseball team. My baseball team is the Marlins.

Next week I am going to math camp.

Science Camp

Yesterday we searched for butterflies. We went outside first. We played on the playground. Then we searched for the butterflies, and then we had snack. Then we played a game with Skittles. You have to put them in your hand and guess which one they are in. No one guessed! I hid them and I ate them! We colored butterflies. Mine was the hardest one to find because I hid it behind something under a table.

Today, we made marble tracks. They are these black things that go down and you can make loops with them. Then you put the marble down and it goes where you want it to go. Sometimes it falls off the tracks. Before science I went to breakfast at Bruegger's Bagels with Bryan. I had a blueberry muffin.

The date is July 23, 2008.

Yesterday it was July 22, 2008.

Tomorrow, on the 24th, I get to go to Zoombezi Bay! I am going with Grandpa Jim and Elizabeth. I am excited about it because I've never been there. It is my first time! Tomorrow is the 24th of July, 2008.

That's all for today! Goodbye!

My very first post!

Yesterday, I did science camp. We did art, science, and stuff. I saw Angel from my class and Peyton from my baseball team. Today at science camp, we were using the five senses. We were on the playground. There were so many kids yesterday! Not that many showed up today. We blew up a bar of soap! We put it in a microwave and it was getting puffy! That was funny! It was like BOOM BOOM BOOM! We got to touch it after it was blown up. It was soapy, and we used our five senses for that, except we didn't taste it. We got a prize at science camp. We got some tootsie pops!


Today, I get to go to soccer again. Coach Locker is the owner of Locker Soccer. Cool, isn't it?


I lost my tooth on Monday, July 21, 2008. I lost the top tooth. Bryan pulled it out! We went to the dentist and Dr. Postle looked at my tooth and told me to pull it out. I twisted it a lot. That was my third tooth. It was fun. I put it under my pillow and I got FIVE DOLLARS! I am going to spend my five dollars at Tutoring Toy.

It was so cool in Montana last year, in 2007. I got some toys at the Tutoring Toy. It was fun when we went hiking and Bryan and Mommy went all the way up the mountain.

I have my own dot com. It is rileypassias.com.
