Iceberg

Before Iceberg had been to G.R. Davis Elementary.
Hey Iceberg!
People should come to our school because our library is so awesome! It has tons of books! It’s so wicked. We also have some great teachers. Our principals are nice people. We have lockers and those are way better than closets. They are also long ones, unlike the half ones. They also have little hooks on them for your coat and backpack and other stuff. There is a shelf on the very top where you can put your books and the teachers let you put pictures on the door of your locker. It rocks at this school.

Luv, Camille

Dear Iceberg,
Iceberg, you should come to our school. We have lots of fun stuff here. We get snow and a gym where we play fun games. We play dodge ball – that’s where you throw soft foam balls at each other and if you get hit, you are out. There are many different kinds of dodge ball. We also have lots of computers where we can play games on and write stories.

The snow hasn’t fallen yet. It sure is getting cold though. The white soft blanket will soon fall onto the world making everything white like clouds.

The leaves in Canada are starting to turn red, yellow and brown. The trees are losing all of their leaves and it’s soon to be winter.

Regards, Thomas

Iceberg,
Our school is great because most grade sevens don’t get recess but we do and we get one hour of playing a recess. Our teacher always lets us play dodge ball in you gym. Our teacher is fun. She’s even letting us get a pet if it’s okay with our staff. We do lots of fun stuff in LA and Math. I’m playing on our school’s volleyball team. It’s my first game today after school and it’s against my brother’s team. On Sunday I made the AA hockey team. It’s fun.

Dear Iceberg,
G.R. Davis has great teachers and has a great library and great books. We have really interesting subjects but you probably do too. We have a pretty big gym and lots of games to play in the gym that our teacher Ms. A is teaching us. I think we are going to have a pretty good band this year and play lots of songs. We also have nice computers in the computer lab. We have a nice playground and field to play on and have fun. I like to play soccer and just have fun. My favorite subject is Math and my favorite thing to do is read if I have the time.
Sincerely, Rebecca

Dear Iceberg,
The reason you should come to G.R. Davis is we have nice teachers, students and a nice environment. Our lunch food is great and the library is full of great books. You could do research on anything. You’ll find out that we have fun option classes like you could be in French, Band, and learn how to sew, cook and act. The computers have a lot of fun games. We have a gym with lots of things to play with. You could join a drum and dance group if you would like. That’s all the great things about G.R. Davis.

From, Joel

Dear Iceberg,
Come take a visit at G.R. Davis and play a game in our wicked sweet gym or buy something from our concession and eat or read in our quiet room, play soccer, two hand touch or play basketball. We have a huge library full of everything you’d ever need to know about. We also have other fun games like bump, tether ball, fumble, baseball and kickball. We also have plays once in a while and sometimes we have talent shows. The year end video is one of my favorites because this year we’re doing the year end video and it’s pretty good so far. If I were you, Iceberg, I’d come to G.R. Davis and have a pretty good time.

From, Keagan

Dear Iceberg,
There are three reasons why you should come to G.R. Davis school:
1. We have really fun sports like volleyball, basketball and mini-rugby.
2. We have fun classes like Band and Drama.
3. We have really fun teachers.

Those are three reasons why you should come to G.R. Davis school.

From, Kristie

After Iceberg had been to G.R. Davis Elementary.
We’ve been having fun with Iceberg in Fort Macleod, Alberta, Canada. We’ve taken pictures of our star and even brought some friends for Iceberg. His friends are a tiny polar bear named Little Bear and a very big, brown bear named Big Bear. (Keagan)

Iceberg has been great here. We have taken many great pictures of him and also done reports on different bears. He’s been hanging around with Uncle Big Bear (that is a stuffed animal that a student brought here). Students have brought some of their stuffed animals here so it’s been great fun. It’s also cool that Iceberg is traveling around the world. (Thomas)

Some of us in the class took pictures of Iceberg and wrote stuff about him doing whatever he is doing. We all are doing different bear reports on eight different kinds of bears. We have had tons of fun with Iceberg since he got here. We hope to have this much fun with him when he gets back. (Dustin)

The class and I did a bear report on any kind of bear. I did a Sun Bear. Some of my classmates took pictures of Iceberg doing things like climbing a tree, playing on the rings outside and sneaking out to his locker and getting his books. (Josie)

It has been a lot of fun having Iceberg here because we have learned lots about bears. We have done bear reports, taken lots of pictures of Iceberg, and lots of other stuff. I can’t wait until he comes back. It is a lot of fun. (Keeyah)

We have been playing with Iceberg every day. It is fun to take pictures of Iceberg at our school. Some of our pictures are of him playing with us a recess time. We take Iceberg everywhere we go – to the library, PE, computer lab, and even outside for recess. All the kids in our class enjoy having Iceberg in our classroom. We hope the rest of the world enjoys him as much as we do. (Larissa)

We have been doing bear research and bear reports during class. We’ve been taking pictures and writing captions above the pictures. While we are doing work, Iceberg will come and sit on our desks. (Cole)

We have been doing bear reports on bears and playing in leaves with Iceberg. We have been playing hide and seek. We have played lots of fun games with Iceberg. (Ryan)

We have been taking tons and tons of pictures of Iceberg. We have been doing research on bears as well! He is keeping everybody happy and giving us lots of company. I hope he likes our school and wants to stay! (Camille)
