Hi, this is Mr T from Legacy Academy iSchool in Elizabeth, Colorado, USA and this is the writing prompt that I gave to my class and this is about a time when their shoes became too big for their feet and this is Colton's writing response. My shoes became too small for my feet and it didn't feel good so I wanted to throw them away and they started to run away from me. They ran into my room and made me bump into the wall and crash. They ran outside...I finally caught them and threw them away. Those were the time when my shoes were too small. Thank you, World.

This is Mr. Tallent from Legacy Academy iSchool in Elizabeth Colorado and we have the first installment of a new serial novel, a great piece of science fiction done by one of my fourth grade science class students, Brendon. The name of the book is entitled "Worm Hole," and this is chapter one. Brendon is going to give you an overview of what the story is about and then he's going to read chapter one: "The story is about a teen who is testing technology on a space craft unknowing that an evil upgrade thing is trying to take over the ship..."

Hi there, this is Mr Tallent at Legacy Academy on September 1st 2011. And I am going to have a couple of my fourth graders read their response. They were shown a picture of Harold who was from the book Harold and the Purple Crayon and they were asked to write a brief response about what they saw in that picture. So I have two young ladies who are going to be reading to you right now. Hi, my name is Makenzie and this is my journal entry. He is looking up at the sky and he has a crayon in his hand and he's getting ready to draw his name in the sky. Hi I'm Zoey and this is my LA notebook entry. I'm King of Crayola. I can color the walls...

Note: it is 2011, not 2001. Mr. T still gets stage fright.

Hi, this is Dulaney and I'm going to be talking to Bree about how we made a structure out of pasta and marshmallows and why they do it. We did it so we can work together as a team to get the highest one. The highest one was a 86 centimeters, but it collapsed, but we still had a lot of fun doing this. Bye.
