Thanksgiving Day

Thanksgiving is coming up soon!! Thanksgiving is awesome because of three things: food, family and a fun long weekend!!!! 

First let’s talk about the food. In Thanksgiving you get turkey, stuffing and my very favourite PUMPKIN PIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

Now let’s talk about family. When Thanksgiving happens, my uncle Lester and my aunt Lauren come over. When Aunt Lauren and Uncle Lester come over, we eat a lot like I said earlier. A lot of other people come too such as my nana, Uncle Brian, Aunti Tami, Uncle Kyle, my grandma and my grandpa, and my cousins Neko and Lainey. Pav and Honny come over sometimes too.

Now we can talk about the long weekend!!! The long weekend is one of my favorite parts of Thanksgiving. You get to miss school on the long weekend and that’s why I like it. Thanksgiving is awesomely awesome!!! I hope you have an awesome Thanksgiving! And maybe an awesome Christmas too! Hehe!

Chrome Books

Our school has recently purchased 40 Chrome books to begin replacing our old Computer Lab.  A Chrome book is very similar to a laptop except it is stripped down to its bare bones.  It really is just a way to get onto the Internet.  

The students have been very excited to use the Chrome books.  It was a little difficult at first to figure out how to use them.  There is no mouse and they had to get used to a touch pad.  Also, many of the students are just getting used to learning how to type.  However, I think the general consensus is that they are a lot faster than the ancient ones in the Computer Lab.

A funny thing about the Chrome books is what we call the cart that holds them.  It is a "cart-on-wheels" or affectionately known as a C.O.W.  We have a brown cow (C.O.W. 1) and a black cow (C.O.W. 2).  This had led to many cow jokes, including a lot of "moos" and pulling the cows from the "pasture."  

Tell me what you think about the Chrome books?
