Watershed Congress

Just want to throw out a Congrats to my son Daekon who was selected with 3 other students from his 5th/6th grade class at school to attend the Watershed Congress at Washington State University Vancouver. His class has been monitoring a stream, near a lake in the area, throughout the school year. They have been testing the stream and recording information and changes about it throughout the year. They have had the help of a Water Resources professional in the area. They get to present their information and results to a group of students from the area, who have tested streams in their area and will present their info as well. WSU will feed the students and parents and make the day very eventful for the students. Daekon is very excited. I am thrilled to attend it with him and watch him enjoy the experience with his classmates. Good job Daekon!!

Poems by Brayden!

These are a couple of poems that Brayden wrote this week for school! I though they were amazing and had to share.

Dear Imagination

Imagination
What do you do
When I don't use you?
Do you eat and sleep
When I don't listen
Or do you run all around
Jumping up and down?
Imagination
Do you live on the streets
Waiting for a silly dance
To break the silence
Or do you wait for the sun
To make everything come to life?
Imagination
Is your pet gray with a tad of yellow
and eyes made of marshmellow?
Imagination
Is your best friend yellow
Because he fell off a ladder
Into buckets of yellow paint?
Imagination
Is your least favorite friend
Blue because he's got the flu?
Hope not.
But I hope I see you
When the sky is blue.

Sincerely

Brayden

All About Me

By Brayden Meza

My hair is like grass in the background

Breezing through the air.

My eyes are like spotlights

Finding everything in sight.

My ears are like microphones

Listening to anything loud enough to hear.

My arms and legs are like the scenery

Always changing and moving.

My nose is like the scent

of the bakery in the morning.

My mouth is the words

That describe me and

That will be all.
