One day at the start of the morning in school in fifth grade at Kaneland John Stewart Elementary School, I went to the gymnasium. The teacher was saying, "The skate forms are due tomorrow, so turn them in! I didn't turn in it in. Since you didn't turn in it in you can stay here..." Mrs. Aversa pointed to a spot right next to a fire extinguisher on a wall in a case."...or you can run or walk," shouted Mrs. Aversa. "I don't like skating," I whispered to Michael. "I don't want to skate either," replied Michael.

A few days later, when we were walking in the gym, the teacher stopped us and said "If you don't turn in the form you have to do an essay about skates.

When I was home, I thought Should I skate? I chose no.

Next day I didn't

I went to the second chair with a computer that worked and I logged in to the computer. I searched History of skates. It showed up as ice skates, so I searched the history of roller skates. It came up with the right picture of the skates. I clicked on a link and found some information. I had a paper that helped me with what to write. There were also books in the library I could use. But the books were only a little helpful. The books only gave about 2 sentences of information. I was happy that I didn't skate. I had my thoughts all by myself while I was writing and reading. I spent about four hours on the essay, but it was about thirty minutes a …show more content…

    Sit back, buckle up, and get ready to scream because I love roller coasters. My family and I go to Cedar Point about every month in the summer, and my dad and I go and ride everything in the park. It is just so fun! The one thing I really like about roller coasters is that there are little rides for the youth kids also. My least favorite thing is when I am not tall enough to enjoy a ride, which doesn’t really occur anymore.…

There are people who would rather jump off the roller coaster while it’s going full speed than sit the entire ride, and you have to understand that. Some people aren’t built for roller coasters; they’re built for the small kids rides. That’s…

    As I walked into the empty room next to Mrs. Moreland’s class, I saw sitting on the far side, John, Peter, and Francisco. They were waiting to begin my tryout for Triple Take. Once I stepped into the room, all my courage swam away scared off by a shark of fear. All the courageous comments I had told myself, and all the high hopes I had built up over the last two weeks just disappeared. Having to re-gather my full determination the best that I could, my feet carried to the main point of the room; It was a place they were using as a staging area.…
