Cartons for Christmas. 

By Natalie 

At Canalview Elementary we do a gathering of food cartons for Christmas. We collect boxes and cans of food for people who do not have any.  It ends on December 2nd and started in November. Remember no glass.  This great act of kindness is being put on by the student council. So one thousand thumbs up to them! Don’t forget to donate!

Frog and Toad 

By Lily 

Frog was a clumsy frog.  He didn't know how to hop so he walked on two legs.  All the animals didn't like frog because he was clumsy and walked different.  He was very lonely.  He started to talk to plants.   

A couple of months later, a new animal arrived in the forest.  His name was Toad. Toad was vary clumsy and walked on two legs.  

When Frog met Toad he thought that he was just like him.  Frog started to talk to Toad.  He got very friendly with him and they became friends.  Even though they were misfits they didn't think so. 

Frog and Toad were friends for a long time. 

Ghosts DON'T Wear Socks 

By: Casey 

Do you really want to know about the big thing I figured out just yesterday?  Well you should, because this is the biggest discovery the whole wide world has ever discovered.  I am going to give you 1 minute to think about it; if you want to know the discovery I made.  Oh, and by the way my name is Jeffrey.  

(Narrator) Good to know.  

(1 minute later,) times up! So what's your choice?  

(Narrator) Yes, I would like to know the discovery you made.  

Good choice, ok the discovery I made was that ghosts, don't, wear socks.  

(Narrator) Yes they do Jeffrey!  

No they don't!  

(Narrator) YES THEY DO!  

NO THEY 

(Narrator) ok calm down, maybe they do maybe they don't, but if your going to say that they don't wear socks, your going to have to prove it.  

Ok I'll prove it, but can I make a deal with you?  The deal is you have to give me one week to get evidence to prove that ghosts don't wear socks, ok?  Deal?  

(Narrator) Deal.  

(One week later). Ok, got my evidence.  First of all, I got a photo of a ghost throwing socks in the garbage.  

(Narrator) That’s photoshopped!  

Ok maybe it is, but this isn't. (Shows a photoshopped picture) 

(Narrator) That’s photoshopped too!   

Ok maybe ghosts DO wear socks.   

(Narrator) That's what I thought.  

But I have been thinking, I well... tried to give you evidence that ghosts DON'T wear socks, but you haven't given me any evidence that ghosts DO wear socks.  

(Narrator) Ok, but you have to give me a week to find evidence, deal?  

Deal. 

(One Week Later.) (Narrator) Ok, I got my evidence that ghosts do wear socks.  

Ok, show me.  

(Narrator shows photoshopped picture of a ghost wearing socks.)  

That’s photoshopped!  

(Narrator) No its not Jeffrey!  Ok, maybe that picture was photoshopped but this one isn't. (Narrator shows a picture of a real ghost wearing socks)  

Woah! That’s actually not photoshopped!  

(Narrator) I told you it wasn't!  

Ok maybe you were right, ghosts DO wear socks.
