The Baseball Game (a persuasive piece about a Vermont family adventure)

The Baseball Game

I went to Stowe for my brother’s baseball game.  It had a huge playground.  It was fun.  It was my first time going to that playground.  I loved it, and you would too.

My brother Jackson’s team won the baseball game.  The baseball field was pretty big.  When it was over, we got pizza.  It was very good.

About a month later, we had to go back to the field for a tournament.  His team won one of them and lost the other.  But they all played great.

It was a fun park, and it was fun to watch the game and play.  I liked Stowe.  You should go there sometime.

 

Helen Keller Biography Puppet Script

Helen Keller

Hi, my name is Helen Keller.  When I was one, I got a fever.  I almost died.  After my fever, my parents turned on the lights, and I didn’t do anything.  My father clapped loudly, and I didn’t do anything.  That is how my parents knew I could not hear or see.

When I got older, I started having tantrums.  I would grab things off the table, and I threw things.  A girl named Annie came and helped me with my tantrums.

When I got older, Annie taught me how to touch things and spell them in her hand.

You should know about me because I have lived a long time without being able to hear or see.  I learned how to read.  I also got to meet a president.

 

My Birthday

For my birthday, my dad took Jackson and me to a hotel with a huge pool.  One part of the pool was really deep.

We also went to Chili’s, and I got pasta with chicken.  Then we went to get Ben and Jerry’s ice cream.  Before we went to bed, we watched TV.

In the morning, we took showers.  Then we got ready for school.  Then we drove to school and got breakfast at Dunkins.  We all got breakfast sandwiches.  My dad dropped me off.  I had to use my brother’s bag for school, and I found a water bottle in our car.  I already had my binder because it was with my school books.

Where My Feet Went This Summer

This summer I went to Maine for my brother’s baseball tournament.  My family and I stayed at my great aunt’s lake house.  We got to swim a lot.  My sister had a cast on, so she had to put a bag over her cast.  We went tubing on the back of their boat.  We also just jumped off the dock.  My dad, brother, and I also went to the beach.  It was so fun!
