Sugarloaf

One Saturday I went to Sugarloaf with my dad. Sugarloaf is the tallest mountain you can ski on in Maine. It is 4, 237 feet. It was the highest mountain I had ever seen.
As soon as I got my skies on, I had fear go down my throat. I felt my heart pounding through my ski jacket and my teeth were chattering.
It was time to get on the ski lift. I was nervous. I got on the lift with no problem and I pulled the bar down. I rode up the mountain and got off the chair lift.
I went down fast. I skiied down the trail with fear around every corner. All of a sudden, whoosh, my poles went left and right and a ski stuck in the snow. There was a swarm of powder as I landed in the snow.

The Maine Educational Assessments
THE MAINE EDUCATIONAL ASSESSMENTS I’m glad the MEA’s are over The first part was hard! We had to read and then write a summary The second part was easy! We did measuring and multiplication I’m good at math and I knew the questions on the test The third part was OK..... We answered questions about energy, producers and consumers, and the three states of matter! The fourth part was just alright; We had to tell them how we thought we did on the test. I thought I did a good job! The best part was NO HOMEWORK! I think no homework is every kid’s dream.
