Third graders invent own holidays
The 3rd graders in Mrs. Zenner’s class had a writing assignment where they had to create their own holiday.  The students needed to give the reason for the holiday, the date for celebrating it, as well as writing about any special activities during the celebration. Everyone drew illustrations for their new holiday celebration.  Here are the holidays they created:
 
Friday, August 13th will be Child Day so that all the kids get a break from parents.  This day is when the kids get to do whatever they want.   Thomas Lowe
 
June 21st will be known as Play Day.  You are to have fun, swim, play baseball, play with friends, play music and eat food.   Max Fernandez
 
October 1st is Pumpkin Day.  On this day I want people to have pumpkins for Halloween.  On this day everyone will be given a pumpkin.   Bobby Kinch
 
June 20th will be known as 8½ Day.  This is because on June 20th I turned 8½ years old.  You would celebrate by eating cake, playing games and giving me presents.
