Wally Learns About Pennsylvania's Climate
On the 23rd and 24th of December I went home with Eva. I walked home with Eva and her friends. When we got back I listened to Eva's ipod.
We went sledding on the way to her house. I never knew that people went sledding in this town. When we got to Eva’s house we had Hershey’s hot chocolate. Eva’s Dad told me something about chocolate.. “People use to have chocolate for medicine!" Isn’t that funny! After hot chocolate we went sledding again at Short Ridge Park. The snow was packed down a lot so we went really fast!
Eva told me that it had snowed just early that weekend. Eva also told me that the climate here in Pennsylvania is very unusual. In the summer it’s really warm and in the winter it’s really cold. How does the climate where you live affect your state? Here the warm weather makes people have beach houses and the cold winter makes people have ski houses.
Then we got back and played in the snow.
With these 2 furry things called dogs. They were really nice but we had to be careful because, one of the dogs, Toby, was younger and I could possible get eaten. The other dog, Buster, was chasing after a little green ball. He was always loosing the ball in the snow! His nose would get all white and Eva called him “Buster the White Nosed Reindeer”! I thought it was really funny. We made a snowman and had a snowball fight!
That night we also went caroling. It was really fun. If you don’t know already I’m a very good musician. I play the recorder and I like to sing. So, caroling practiced my singing. I also learned a lot of Christmas songs. My favorite one was Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer. Probably because of Buster.
The next day I had a fun time except it had nothing to do with Pennsylvania. We just had fun! Eva told me I am a great playmate. Overall, I had a GREAT time at Eva’s house. I also learned a lot.
Don’t forget to answer my question:
How does the climate where you live affect your state?

Lucky! I wish we had snow here in san antonio, texas. The only bit of snow we had here in san antinio was for 5 minute when it was too cold to go out side.

Thanks
ReplyDeleteWell, actually we just had a HUGE snow storm and we got almost 2 feet of snow.
That's a lot though. We usually only get 3-7 or so inches. But, it's kind of funny to think that you almost NEVER get snow.
In Nebraska we have had several snow days. Usually in Grand Island we don't get a lot of snow days, but small schools in the towns around us will. We haven't gotten alot of snow in the last few years, but this year we have gotten a lot- almost 20 inches!
ReplyDelete"Buster the White Nosed Reindeer" is really catchy! My dog wouldn't like getting his nose all snowy.
ReplyDeleteBecause of our climate, our school year usually starts just after Labor Day and ends in mid-June. There are many summer camps and some people go to their beach houses or mountain houses. I've heard that other states start school much earlier than we do and end much earlier than we do because of their climate. Is that true?
ReplyDeleteWow! I love snow!
ReplyDeleteBuster the White nosed reindeer is a nice name!
