    Today in school we watched a movie. It was called Snowbound. It was about two people and their baby son got stuck in the freezing cold. The movie was sad and gross at the same time. It was sad because they were starving, dehydrated, and dying. It was gross because the parents had severe frostbite on their feet and their feet were purple. The baby was fine. The movie ended with everyone getting better, but the mom and dad’s frostbite made them lose contact with some parts with there nervous systems, three-fourths of their feet had to get cut off. It was a really good movie. It was a also true story.

    Today I went to Little Portager Fun Night. We went from five to eight o’clock. There was basketball and floor hockey in the gym.There was cookie decorating, foam ornaments, nail painting, and they played two movies. One movie was “Zookeeper” and the other was “Over the Hedge”. I decorated a cookie, made an ornament, watched some of the movies, and played in the gym. There were only five kids from my class there: me, Ben A., Sam, Jodi, and Mckenna.  There was hotdogs, chips, and popcorn. There was lemonade and water to drink. I had a lot of fun at Little Portager Fun Night.
