Taylor likes Christmas
by Angela

Today we interviewed kindergartners. I interviewed Taylor. I asked her questions about snow and Christmas. She said a lot of things about Christmas. She doesn't have a christmas tree yet, but when she gets one she wants to help decorate it. She really likes colored lights and pretty ornamints.

Taylor said she hopes to get a Barbie beach. She is planning to leave a snack for Santa. She does not know what song she has to sing for Christmas but she thinks she might have to wear angel wings. That would suit her very much.

An Interview With a Kindergartner
By Anja

Today I interviewed Jarett. He seemed pretty interested in Christmas coming up. He said that he had put up his tree. His favorite part of Christmas is getting big toys. I also asked him if he puts out cookies and milk for Santa. He said no, I put out candy and hot cocoa.

The next questions I had asked him he answered very well. He seemed to like the snow because he wanted a sled for Christmas. Then I asked him if he was going to be in a Christmas program for his church. He said yes, I am going to be an angel. So is everyone else.

I had a lot of fun doing these interviewing projects. I would like to do more, and I think the little kids do too.

Interviewing Tucker
by Chase

I interviewed Tucker. He enjoys snow. He sleds on the Onekama hill with his orange sled. He makes snowmans and has lots of fun making them . He doesn't like shoveling his driveway.

He does like to decorate his tree. His family hasn't gotten a tree yet so he hasn't done it this year.

This year Tucker is going to give Santa milk and cookies. Plus he's giving the reindeer some carrots. He did the Christmas program with Mrs. Eichburger and maybe is going to do the program at school.

Rainbow Snow for Majida
By Ethan

Today I interviewed Majida. Majida is a kindergartner. She is really talkative. She said she likes to play in the snow because it was fun. She can go really fast on a sled . she said the snow hill is her favorite thing. She wants to change the color of the snow to rainbow with extra pink. I think that's a good idea.

Majida said she wanted a dollhouse, a Barbee and a baby for christmas. She plans to leave cookies and whatevre kind of milk she has for Santa. She thinks Santa weighs 25 pounds. Then I talked to her a little more. She decided maybe he weighed 100 pounds. I kept talking to her. We stayed with 500 to 900 pounds. After that I asked her about her Class Christmas Party . She didn't know anything about that.

by Cody

Today I did an interview with Jacob. Jacob likes to sled down the Onekama Hill. He sleds with his grandpa. He shovels his deck at his house, but he says its too hard to shovel more than 2 to 4 inches of snow. When he shovels he makes a big pile and then makes a snowman. He uses snow, carrots, buttons, and beads to make a snow man.

I asked Jacob if he had put up th tree yet. He responded that he had it up since Thanksgiving. The ornaments are blue and silver.

Jacob wants Santa to bring him a PSZ and a PS2 game. He is going to leave cookies and milk for santa. He really loves presents.
