What we did in gym.

It is not the first day of school just because this is the first time I'm writing about school. Actually, my "new school"; it's not really a new school, because this is about the 71st day of school.

Anyway, what happened in school today was, first off, in the gym, we played with a real parachute, and the first thing we did was, we each took a part of it and jumped up and down, so it looked all wavy. Then, we spun it around clockwise until Mr. Sanatalis (the gym teacher) blew his whistle, and then we would do it counter-clockwise. Ad we kept doing it in a pattern, clockwise and then counter-clockwise. Then we lay down and put our feet under it and kicked it, so that the edges looked like a pie crust and were all wavy, except in the middle. And then we waved the parachute really softly, and made it look like water, and we were really, really silent so it didn't only look like water, but it heard like water too. The last thing we did in gym was, Mr Santaliz took out a rubber chicken, and I thought we were gonna play Chicken Toss, but we didn't (Chicken toss was from my old school in gym). Instead of Chicken Toss, Mr. Santalis said that we were frying the chicken, and so we had to put the parachute up and down until the chicken fell into the hole in the middle, then someone would come and get it. We did that as a pattern over and over until we had to line up for water. Then Ms. Halliday picked us up, and we went all the way to the cafeteria for lunch.
