3 Volume 13 Issue 5 Page 3 The 5 Little Chickens (Act 2) By: Sarah Lewis Another one made their house of snowballs. And a wolf said, I ll try to huff and puff and blow the house down. But, he couldn t huff and puff and blow the house down because he only drank apple juice all the time. The last house was made of snow bricks. He broke through the side of the house and said I ll be nice only if you get me ice cream cone. Then, at last they played a game of hopscotch outside in the snow. The wolf said, Yes, I would love to play a game! Dance Recital By Rachel Ayzenberg This year is going to be my fourth dance recital at Studio of Dance and Performing Arts in Newtown, PA. I am dancing to " Let's Get Crazy, Peppermint Twist." My costume looks amazing! It has a black tie on it. In addition, my dance recital is taking place at Maple Point Middle School. I am going to wear a lot of make-up for the show! You won't recognize me! ATG: A New School for Me By Zane Bolden I really like it here at ATG. I like the other students because they are nice. Dimitri really helped me out in the lunchroom with warming up my lunch. Ms. Kathy is a nice principal. Thank you everyone! Monster Truck Show By Joey Oakley I went to see a Monster Truck Show last Saturday. My parents and I rode to Plymouth Meeting, to LuLu Shriners Center Arena to see this show. There were 4 cool trucks. My favorite was the Stinger. It had a tail like a scorpion painted on the truck. This truck was made with a Ford body. I got an autograph from Zane Rettew who built and drives the Stinger. My family had a great time. You should try going to a monster truck show sometime. But bring earplugs, because it is LOUD!!!
