Hey all of you Galesburg Middle Schoolers! I hope you had a great spring break. I would like you to tell me the following about yourselves in a blog.

1. What did you do productive this past week? (tell about it)
2. What did you do "just for fun?"
3. What happened, if anything that you did not enjoy? (tell about it)

Do you think Spring Break is important for kids and teachers? Why or why not?

I really didn't do anything productive this past week. I just sat around and watched TV and all that other junk. For fun? Well, I went shopping and went to Tulsa to the Texas and Arizona game and the KU and Illinois. What I didn't enjoy was that I was bored the whole time. So by Monday, I was ready to go back to school.

The only thing i did productive was have an eye docters appointment and pick out my new glasses. I cleaned my room for fun i guess... is that normal? Anyway i didn't enjoys spending my spring break mostly in my house. I actually do think that spring break is important for kids and teachers, it allows you to sleep in!

My spring break was okay, I guess. I didn't do anything though. I didn't really do anything productive, but I did do my Social Studies test, and the story we had to write for Mrs. DeLange if that counts. The only thing I did for fun was like watch T.V or something like that. I was on the computer a lot too, much to moms disgust.. Nothing exciting really happened. I did do one major accomplishment and you should be very proud of me... I cleaned out my closet! It was bad.. REALLY bad. I didn't get it done till like midnight. But that's about all I did over spring break.. Not that exciting. Nothing bad really happened. I couldn't hang out with anyone but that was about it. So that's how my break went.

1. I didn't do very many productive things. Cleaning house is the only productive thing I think I did. Well, I read, if that counts.
2. I rode my bike, played with my dogs, played outside, and chilled with my friends just for fun. Also watched TV and played video games.
3. Nothing exciting happened, and I didn't go anywhere except over to my mother and step dad's house for the weekend. I played basketball with my step dad, which was tons of fun. :) One thing I didn't enjoy was having to clean the house and do dishes. That's never any fun to do on a week off.
Yes, Spring Break is very important because it is a stress reliever, and so we won't get sick of each other.
As you can see, my Spring Break was on the boring and uneventful side. At least we all got a week off from school! :)

This past week Im not sure what i did productive... Well i went to visit my dad in Wamego Kansas, which is like three and a half hours away in the middle of no where!!!! But I found something fun to do anyway! I painted lots because i love arts and crafts!! I also road the four wheeler all over the farm to! I also went to visit the horses and baby calfs all the time! One thing i did not enjoy about being there is that during the day everybody had to go to work so i was home alone till like 1:30 or so. But I didnt wait to long because I slept in pretty late!! Yes I think spring break is importatnt to both kids and teachers because its a reason to get away from things awhile!!

At the beginning of the week I went to Joplin with my dad. We ate at a japenesse sushi and steak house, went to the movies, stayed the night at a hotel, went to Academy Sports, and then we went to the flea market their. At the flea market a lady was selling yorkies. So because of Ty wanting one we got a puppy. Stephanie named her Nessa. On Thursday I went to Branson with my mom and grandma. We saw several shows and did several things their. We went and saw my friend Alexa Fawson and my great aunt Linda. We left on Saturday and shopped in Joplin. We did a lot of things just for fun. In Branson I even fell down a flight of stairs. I did not enjoy baby sitting my brothers,and knowing I was going to have to go back to school. Ashlyn :)

This Spring Break I did many things to be productive. I fed cattle every mourning, built a bridge, worked on a tyrod on the 4450, unloaded 1530 lbs of feed, and worked for the U.S goverment. I went laser tagin' for fun, I also went muddin' around trying to grain the cattle. I didn't enjoy was breaking the tyrod on the four wheeler and about wrecked it when I was driving. I was always a big fan of spring break because it give the children and teachers a break before or after state assements. So that is what I did over the spring break.

I really didn't do anything productive at all....i just sat around and watched t.v. all day. Landyn, Aubrey and I went outside with Landyn's new air soft gun and we shot each other. It was fun! i dropped my phone in the bathtub and it was all messed up for awhile. I finally got it to work again though! the speakers wouldn't work on it so I took the phone apart and put it in the freezer. It worked after that! Yes I think it is important for kids to get away from setting in a building for 7 hours and do work. I think it is important for teachers to get away from all their students.

This spring break I did a lot of fun things! I did a lot of reading this past break and helped my mom with some of her preschool stuff. I also went fishing a lot. One day we caught about 40 fish in two hours!!!!! I also played video games and played basketball. One thing I did not enjoy was in Omaha, Nabraska at the zoo my car got broken into and they stole a purse!! I think spring break is very important because then kids and teachers get bored and might not do there best. That was my spring break!!!

I really didn't do anything productive the past week. We went to Florida for spring break and went to Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom, and Universal Studios. One of the things I enjoyed was this dinosaur ride. You get inside a cart and it drives you around in this building in pitch black and it feels like you are in a jungle. Then dinosaurs will pop out of nowhere and roar and it's so loud it hurts your ears. But it was kind of scary. I felt bad for a little girl that rode the ride. But I didn't enjoy Animal Kingdom as much. That is what I did over spring break.

Really the only thing I did productive this week was shoot bird and turtles. i shoot at least two turtles. What I did for fun is shoot, jump on the trampoline and go to the Zoo. The thing that i didn't enjoy was clinging my room. That's some of what I did this weekend.

I had n okay school break. I worked from 10-3 every day and that is early for me, but at least i got some money to buy my bird. At The Rose Garden outside of Erie. There is a guy and his wife raise birds, all types of birds. One of te mothers and fathers just layed two eggs! i have to get a boy so i could teach him how to talk, because if i got a girl she cant talk, i thought it was weird but i get it now. He is gonna sell him to me for half off ($75.) I have even found a bird cage and little things to go with. But anyway back to my break, I have been baby sitting nine toddlers and two babies. At least the babies don't scream, kick, bite and a lot more other stuff that would be way to long to write here but you get it by now. This summer I am gonna baby sit even more and mabe buy somthing special for my mom:)

I cant really think of anything I did productive. mostly during spring break I rode dirtbikes played basket ball watched tv and played Black ops. So really I didnt do anything productive. The only bad thing that I did during spring break was do Science which as everybody knows is not fun at all. Spring break is definitely important because it gives kids and teachers a break from school.

I didn't do anything productive the whole spring break other than being online and earning badges online. for fun i went out and literally bought 20 bags of chips (cool ranch flavored), and also got 4 two litters. The marathon lasted 2 days including sleep. I pretty much enjoyed it all.

During spring break not just because i got grounded again its because there was nothing to do so
I just pretty much watched t.v. (that's what pretty much everyone did) and if I didn't get my phone taking away i would of been txting all last week. I didn't enjoy not getting to go anywhere (because I was grounded). And i definitely think it's important that kids need spring break.

The only thing I did that was productive was do the dishes and clean my room. I spent 2 days at the hospital, because my mom had her baby! Besides that I went shopping and watched t.v. It was a pretty boring time! I was ready to come back to school on Monday.

The only thing i did that was productive was i ran for track and ran a half mile and I ran hills and I felt like my appendix burst and walked the whole way back. I also cleaned walnuts out of our yard. I went Lazer Tagging in Joplin and went to Kansas City to buy track shoes. the only thing I didnt enjoy about the break was that it was kinda boring. YES spring break is important everyone needs a good break especially when all the stress is built up around state assessments.

My spring break was kind of boring. I washed dishes, cleaned my room, cleaned the kitchen, and washed more dishes. For fun I went to my friends house and we had lots of fun. I did get grounded for a few days but that's really the only bad thing that happened to me other than that it was pretty boring

I cleaned my room for fun because I needed to. I did not that I was bored half of the time I was home. Yes, because kids and teachers need a break. Kids need a break from school to from what I think.
