Paper Airplane Races!

Yesterday, we had paper airplane races. First, we thought about what kinds of airplanes we could make. We guessed what kinds of features would make the airplanes glide furthest. And paper airplane races are a lot of FUN! It is easy to make paper airplanes you can play with your friends and family. You can design your own airplanes by drawing or coloring! You ask why did paper airplanes Exist? Well it existed 2,000 years ago. Here is a Fun Fact about paper airplane. National Geographic Channel:" In 2012 workers restoring a chapel in England found paper "planes" up in eaves thought to be more than hundred years old." Here are some of the picture of the kid`s Imagination, and Facts about their Airplanes.

When the Baby Was Singing

By Devin

I liked when people rapped, drew, and shared their pictures, and I like when they wrote their names on the board. I liked when I shared my own picture: it had Sponge Bob on it and race cars. I liked the pictures they drew. I liked Amber and Essence singing—they both go to Imani. I liked when Justin was rapping.

I liked when Monet made the speech. I liked when she talked on the microphone. The reason why I liked it is because she did a loud one and everyone could hear it.

I like when Ms. Jane was giving out the books because the books were about animals.

I liked when Essence had her song because she sang “I Am a Promise.” I like that song because of it’s meanings about our school, Imani.

I liked when Samira and Amber made that song.

I liked when Amber and Ayoka sang and when Ayoka played on the piano.

Summer Time J.R

By J.R

Summer time

The summer is great

But I don’t think I can wait

Getting to play with my friends

All day long without a worry in the world

Getting to be in the pool

I wouldn’t be fool to do this all day

I must bear the fact that I would miss my dear friends

It isn’t a crime not to miss school

All I wanted to say is school is kind of cruel

Our Art Safari!

We went on an Art Safari on the Museum of Modern Art's site! We wrote stories inspired by paintings!

The Mysterious Man

By Jayana
One special night there was a man named Safari heloved to play the violin.  Before one afternoon he went to take a trip to Africa. So he was happy because his family was there and he could see them. But when he got there, it was 10:00 pm and when he finally got to his parents' house, the house was abundant and no one lived there. So he tried to figure out what happen and where could they be. Then a women came up to Safari and said “Sir, did your family live there?”And Safari said yes, what happened to them? The lady said they moved to California and Safari said think you. So Safari was sad and he was angry. So when he was walking he found a cave and he fall asleep. Then a big lion came by and woke safari up and safari said PLEASE DON'T HURT ME and the lion growled at him and the lion walked away.

The Lion Rescues the Musician Girl

by Ms. Jane

In this picture, the lion is helping the girl. She got lost and fell asleep. The lion smelled her and came to investigate. The lion’s tail sticks out like a housecat’s He has a bright eye that makes him look kind of intense, but maybe it’s just a reflection of the moonlight. The girl set out from a nearby village to play the flute for a local festival. She followed the wrong star. She is supposed to bring her friend in the next town his mandolin, but it got filled with rainwater. She is afraid he will be hurt because the mayor is very strict with musicians. The girl and the lion are near and enchanted lake. The lion may be a reincarnation of her deceased brother. The moon is watching over them. At midnight, the lion will wake the girl and they will goto the town. The moon will enchant the mandolin so that it dries. The youngerbrother/lion will return with the girl to their village.

Once upon a time a parrot was flying in the sky. He was having so much

track of time and was very hungry. Then he had to find his food. He
learned his lesson and kept track of time for then on.
