• Spring Assignment

  By this time of year, it feels as if the snow has been around for a thousand years, so most people around here are itching for spring.  Probably even the dogs and cats are ready.  It really seemed to be around the corner this weekend, with the sun out and the ice melting on the road.  Danielle, Annika, and I took our first walk in months.  I only slid once.  Anyhow, the fourth graders had to write a paragraph on spring this weekend, and here's Danielle's, errors intact:

  "Spring in Montana"

  When I think of spring

  I think of lots of things.

  I think of muddy streams of water.

  I think of the first daysys. 

  I think of the occasonal snowdrift.

  I think of cooler days, warmer

  days and rainy days.  I

  think of two-mile walks. I

  think of muddy paths.  I

  think of moments after rain

  with muddy Dirt, puddles

  and dripping trees I think

  Of the occasonal freeze.

  I think of lots of things

  when I think of spring
