Echoes of Second Grade

I have Mrs. Quinn for second grade. I got in trouble in the bathroom today. Somebody slammed the toilet seat and it made a really neat echo, so I tried to make sounds that would make a really neat echo too. It wasn't until I came out that I learned it was echoing in the hall too. The short sister in first grade was waiting outside and asked me who was making all that noise. My face must have given me away, but it also gave away that I didn't know you could hear it in the hall, so I guess I really didn't get in trouble, but getting caught was punishment enough for me.

Soccer Defenseman

I like playing soccer. I play defense. My job is to kick the ball as far away from our goal as possible, so the other team can't score. Audra, David, and Billy came to watch me today. They cheered loudly every time I kicked the ball. I still have no idea what the red and yellow cards mean though.
