Isaiah was supposed to make a flag representing the northwest territories in his Social Studies class. I guess it's Ohio Social Studies because that's all they've studied so far. They're at the end of the 1700's now in Ohio history and Ohio is one of the 5 states to come from the northwest territories. What's so funny is the paragraph Isaiah wrote along with the flag and the response from the teacher. Isaiah wrote....
The buckeye (which is not a meatball) stands for Ohio. The stars stands for the five states the green stand for the farm lands. The read stands for the blood they shed in battle.
(he's an excellent speller I can't believe he wrote "read" instead of red.)
His teacher wrote
90% A-
Isaiah
-nice job!
-Good paragraph but should be 5 sentences!
-That's funny about the meatball!
His teachers have to get a kick out of him. He always tries to write something to make them laugh. In the 3rd grade they had to write spelling sentences every week. After the first comment written by his teacher on his sentences page, he was hooked! He tried to make her laugh and write a comment every week after that! At one point I had to tell him "they can be funny but they HAVE to make sense also!".
