All About Summer

By: Mariana Battiste (Grade 6)

We all know that the year is going by so fast! And summer is so close from here I can just taste it. All the teachers might be sad that you are leaving and going into a new grade or even high school. But the students, according to my perspective, are very excited for summertime considering no homework and no school. Also all the things you can do in summer are so exciting like seeing your friends that aren't in your classes, doing summer camps, and most importantly in my opinion the trips/vacations. Finally, summer is most important for taking a very long break until school. Did you know that some kids mostly pick summer for their favorite season? Keep reading to learn about summer and how students look forward to summer every year.

Before I start this article I wanted to mention the 6th grade field trip had already happened but in my time right now in the past the field trip has not happened. So I hope you had fun considering the trip was at the Reading Phillies Stadium!! Summer is a huge break for students and teachers. It is a very vacation from school to cherish. One question I am going to ask you for fun is what is the most ice cream pounds ever scooped? One fact about summer is that the largest barbecue lasted over 3 days.

Did you know that animals eat 15 pounds of watermelon every year. There is actually a National Watermelon Day that falls on August 3rd. Say you love long summer days? Then head up to the Arctic Circle where the sun never sets in the warmest six months. Hopefully you all don't have a lot of homework right now because it is starting to get warmer and closer to June 13th! As you can see, summer is very exciting to look forward to and there are so many facts about summer.
