Elementry School Memory: Blog 4

    Well, I probably don't have the same type of memories that other kids would have because of my being homeschooled all my life up to last year.  But homeschooling doesn't mean that I don't have interesting memories.
    When I was about in 2nd grade, or some where around there, I would have every day folders which contained that work I had to complete for that days work.  I particularly did not enjoy my writing worksheets.  So I thought up a plan of how to not have to do the work.  I decided to try throwing the worksheet away and try to get away with it.  Crumbling up the paper I chucked into the trash can.  Later, when my mom went through my work checking it and going over things I needed help with, she discovered that something was missing.  She turned to me and asked where my writing was. I reluctantly walked over to the garbage can and pulled out the crumbled and distorted piece of paper.  Actually I forget if or what my punishment was.  But from now on I haven't thrown away a single writing assignment.
