by Tyler, Grade 3

We made empty bowls with hyscoolers! We made empty bowls because a special person died. His name was Ed Hommer.

He once climed Mt. Everest. That's why we are doing this. I felt decent working with hyscoolers because were weren't doing this for fun we were doning it for someone special from our community.

Helping Hands by Makeing Emty Bouls
by Amber
We made bowls to sell so we can raise money for the Ed Hommer Foundation. We were also helping hands. I liked working with the high schoolers because the paritner I was working with made the bowl for me and I made the bottem. I wish they took pichers of all the bowls. I hope my paritner had a fun time too.

We did them for the Ed Hommer fondation. It is a good way to raise money. It was fun working with high schoolers. Because they showed us a good exsample of a bowl. They were being philanthpits for the common good. They glazed or bowls for us. It was the greatest working with the high schoolers. It was really cool.

Making Emty Boles for the Emty Bole Dinner
by Katie, grade 3

I felt good working with ashley the high schooler. She was a smart girl. She was great at art and she took her time working. At first I was shy when I first walked in the room. I was also afraid that the high schooler that was gonna work with was mean or wouldn't like me. I'm glad she liked me though because I liked her. We made the emty bowles to rais money for someone. We are gonna give them to the empty bowle dinner. We also made the bowles for the Ed Hommer foundation. Thanks, from Katie
