December 17: Chose Your Character
Have you started to read the Book "One Crazy Summer" yet? Can you name and give a brief description of one of the characters? Tell us why you chose that character.
My favorite character is big ma because she’s the funniest character, and she sounds like the sassiest character and the funkiest. And a moo-moo dress sounds kind of weird I think I’m going to like the rest of this book. By: Ian Miller from Stocking Elementary and Ms.Doughty’ s 5th grade
The girls expect their mom Cecile to be mean, selfish, uncaring, unloving mom that lives on the streets and sleeps on a bench next to a crazy drunk guy with bird poop stained on the bench. But she really has a house and she is still a selfish uncaring mom. The girls are expecting there mom to give them their money back that there dad gave them to go to Disney world. The girls expected there mom to give them their money back but instead she gave them ten dollars of their money to go get something to eat from Ming’s.
