Patient Snapshot- Kayla #2

Being Patient at Home and at Recess

 By: Kayla

 Mrs. Wold’s first grade.  

When my birthday was coming up I was so excited but I had to wait for it to come. I had to be patient. 🎈🎂🎈

One time I had to wait for the 1st day of 1st grade. I had to be patient. 🛄

Kindness, you have smile, do not push, do not shove.

Be safe, no running at recess or on the blacktop. Do not go head first on the slide.  

Patience Snapshot- Isaac #1

“My word is patience,” announced Joey “can you say it?”

“Patience.” The class repeated.

“Can you spell it?”  

“P-A-T-I-E-N-C-E”

“Patience is the the capacity to accept or tolerate delay, trouble, or suffering without getting angry or upset.” Explained Joey.

He continued but Elroy tuned him out. He could not stand still. Elroy could smell lunch. He looked at the clock. Tick Tick Tick, 21 more words to go and 20 minutes and 45 seconds to go. 19 words and 17 minutes and 38 seconds to go. Then finally ten nine eight seven, Elroy’s hand twitched. Six five four, Elroy could not stand it. He pushed in his blue chair and ran out of the classroom. His shoes slipped. Seconds later he was in the principal’s office. That day Elroy learned that patience  plays an important role in his life.

Over the next few days Elroy used patience in all the things he did. He ended up making a new friend and is now not known as the kid who could never wait.

“Patience is the the capacity to accept or tolerate delay, trouble, or suffering without getting angry or upset.”

That is the word of the month.
