Mrs. Renz's 4th Grade Class  Redmond, Oregon

 

We Read for 2002 (Seconds!)

As part of Scholastic's program, on December 14th, we read for 2002 seconds, which is about 33 1/2 minutes.  Everyone loved spending time getting into a good book, even Mrs. Renz.  Read what our students had to say about the event.

We read for 2002 seconds.  I read a book called In the Land of the Big Red Apple.  I am glad to be one of the students to read for 2002 seconds.  When we stopped I really didn’t want to stop.  I really imagined what the people looked like and what the setting was like. I wish we could read again for 2002 seconds.  I thought it was fun and great.

Today we read for 2002 seconds which is 33 and a half minutes!  I read Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by J.K. Rowling.  So far my book is good.  Reading for 2002 seconds was fun.  Once it was over I didn’t want to put my book down.

We read for 2002 (seconds).  I had a great time.  What we read was for 33½ minutes.  I read the book Storm Breaker.  It is a super book.  Our class had an awesome time.  I’m glad we took part.

I read Little House on the Prairie.  It was a really good book.  We read from 12:25 – 12:58½ p.m.  It was 33 minutes but it was 2002 seconds.  I really like reading a long time because you can really get into your book that you are reading.  It was really fun doing this.  I can’t believe that we are reading with a bunch of other kids for 2002 seconds.  I want to do this next year when I am in 5th grade.  I am so glad we did this.

I read for 2002 seconds and I thought it was cool.  I have never done it before.  I read for 33½ minutes.  It did not feel like a long time.  I wish we could do it again!  It was cool!

Today on December 14, 2001 we read for 2002 seconds which is 33½ minutes.  I read a book called Harry Potter.  It was really fun.  People all around the world are doing the same thing that we just did.  We read for 2002 seconds to welcome the year 2002.  It was also for Scholastic News.

We read for 33½ minutes.  Other kids around the world were reading for 33½ minutes.  It was so much fun because it was quiet and peaceful.  I really enjoyed it.  I hope you had fun.
