Dear 6th Grade Teacher,
My name is Emmy. I'm an athlete hopping to help bring middle school to victory in soccer, basketball, and cheerleading. I idolize all those sports and more. Also golf and chorus. I was so good that I got into the County's Honor Chorus.
I have been scared, sad, nervous, mad,and excited. I am scared and sad because I'm afraid I'll forget where to go when and I'm sad because I don't want to leave my elementary school. Nervous because I think I will make horrible grades next year when I'm a straight A student here. I said mad for the same reason I said sad. Excited because I get a locker instead of a small desk and we get to do cool experiments like we saw on the slide-show.
After some thinking I have decided I will have fun at middle school next year. I will have a great time.
Sincerely,
Emmy
P.S. I might see you at Bulldog Camp.
Emmy, I like how you expressed your full range of emotions. Isn't it amazing how we can feel excited and scared at the same time? I have enjoyed reading your blog and hope you will continue writing as you move on to your new school.
