A Surf and his Turf by Christina Celentino

A surf has a hard life. They have to feed the king, clean and pick the crops, and work nonstop in the fields, and they only get a quarter of what they work for.The surfs barely have enough food to feed their families. And they also don’t get time to see them. The surfs have to live in little huts. They work hard for their food. The surfs are pretty much slaves. I think it’s totally unfair!

I think surfs should get more! The surfs don’t even get protection. They have to go out in battle. The surfs pretty much take care of the whole kingdom.

Gala Donation Letter by Christina Celentino

IMG_2009

Dear Owners of Flip Force,

Hi! My name is Christina Celentino and I go to Old Town Academy charter school. We are having an Art and Wine Gala so we can raise money for our school.

I love to do cheer and gymnastics and I love going to Flip Force so I was wondering if  you would donate free lessons to our gala. It would be great advertising for Flip Force. I want people to try to do jumps and gymnastics. Old Town Academy is a great and awesome school.

I greatly appreciate all your time. Your generosity will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you kindly,

Christina Celentino

Black Dog Goes to the Zoo/Treasure Island project #1 by Christina Celentino

Once upon a time Black Dog went to a little shop to look at stuff and when he got there he saw a few people looking at a picture on their iPad. It was a picture of a flamingo. Then Black Dog said “What is that a water buffalo.” The people said “No. Are you crazy.” “Arghh. Nobody calls me crazy. Just tell me what that is.” said Black Dog. ” “It’s a flamingo!” said the person. “A fla-what-o!” said Black Dog. “A flamingo!” said the person madly. “Now where can I see ye old flamingo?” said Black Dog. “At the zoo.” said the person. “Well how do I get there?” said Black Dog. “Look it up.” said the person.

So Black Dog went home to his computer and looked it up. He saw you can see them in San Diego.

So he bought 1 ticket to the zoo. The 1st thing he saw in the zoo was the flamingos. He said”Ahhh! They are pink and that one is staring at me!” He left as fast as he could. But the security stopped him. They said he had to stay because he got there like 2 minutes ago.

So Black Dog went back and got in a fight with the lion and the lion won.

My Trip to Florida by Christina Celentino

A few days ago just me and my dad went to Florida. We had to take 2 planes because it was either 4 hours on the plane and 4 hours in a car or we can do 6 hours on a plane. We did the second one. But we had to stop at Atlanta because there wasnt a direct flight. We did the same on the way back. The flight got delayed because there was a storm. Once we got there my grandma picked us up. She has a platypus in her back seat and one in the front. Once we got to their house my grandpa gave me a big hug. That was the only time I got to see my grandpa at his house. Then I had to go to bed because we had to wake up at 4:30 in the morning. Once we got to the hospital they brought my grandpa to get him set up then we got to see him. Then they did his surgery so we ate lunch and I took a nap and I watched a movie on Netflix. I spent most of my days there at the hospital. One day me and my grandma went out to lunch and went shopping. I got some really cute tops. My grandpa pulled through. He is great now. I had a lot of fun in Florida and I can’t wait to go there again.

Ice Cream Sundaes by Christina Celentino & Natalia Mendez

Ice Cream Sundaes are better when you put cherries on top. And they are better when it is hot. It cools you down. It is better with toppings. I love it with hot fudge or caramel. It makes me spin round and round. I like oreo sundaes the best. I like mint chocolate chip sundaes the best. I like to get it from a burger joint or McDonalds. I like it homemade from the heart.

THE END!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
