Bang, boom, pop. These are the sounds of war. Bang, boom, pop,
these are the sounds of school. School is like a war we are
fighting. We are fighting for our freedom, our freedom to
learn.
I woke up at 07:00 and got ready for school. When I arrived at
school we signed the Pledge of Allegiance in sign language. “Ten
Hut!” Sergeant Dux bellowed. We all got in line and we were ready
for Science with Captain Hudson.
We received a booklet of Arbor Day and on the back of it it showed angiosperm and Captain Hudson had us read which kind of angiosperm we were. After science we marched onto reading.
I have Sergeant Dux as my reading teacher and we practiced our
reader’s theatre. In my reader’s theater, I am Barbara
Freitchie.
After reading we had spelling.
Sergeant Dux video taped my class singing and signing “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star”. She was going to put that video tape on the internet so we all wanted to look good.
At the 11 Hundred hour we went to lunch. We had Pizza Hut pizza. It
was great, although nobody could taste the pizza because we scarfed
it down in a hurry to get outside. I played football and the game
ended in a tie.
After we marched inside, we had music and PE. Patrolman Zrust
taught us that a tambre is how people identify your voice or the
qualities of your voice. In PE, Headmistress Seibolt had us do an
exercise and if we could hold that exercise for one minute we would
get a game day. Game day it is! We played dodge ball and I think it
ended up in a tie.
Sweaty PE is done, now on to Social Studies. Sergeant Dux gave us
an L to J quiz and had us fill out our G.O.’s.
Now that band and study hall are done it is time for us to march on
home. Head up soldier, even though our Sergeants’ may have shot us
with homework, we will be back tomorrow armed with pencils, paper
and plenty of ammo. We will be ready for anything the Sergeants
shoot at us.
