CLASSROOM SOLSC FOR STUDENTS: DAY 16 OF 31

Welcome to Day  16 of the 4th Annual Classroom Slice of Life Story Challenge!

If your students are writing for the Classroom Slice of Life Story Challenge, this is where you will post the link to their writing!

Looking for Slice of Life writing ideas? Here’s a slice about a scary situation; it was written by Maddie for our sixth grade March Challenge a few years ago:

A Close Call!!!
My brother and I were running around my grandparents’ house. They had taken us to church while my parents were at a birthday party with my two other brothers. My family wasn’t back yet, so we were still at their house after church.
Here is what I LOVE about my grandparents taking us to church: When we are really good and quiet, we get a treat afterwards! I chose Smoothie King as a treat. Here is the best part of my decision… My Grandpa LOVES Smoothie King! He lets me get whatever I want! I got a small banana berry treat smoothie and he got a King sized PB&J sandwich smoothie, and a bag of chips. We shared the chips at his house while we drank our smoothies.
“Hello”, my Grandpa said, into his cell phone. “Madie and Griff, settle down!”, “What was that?” He was talking to my Dad about what time he would be there to pick us up. While chatting on the phone, he glanced at the bag of chips and his eyes suddenly widened. He turned to bag towards me so I was able to read “fried in peanut oil!” It was printed in big letters on the front of the bag, how did we not notice it before?
After several nervous minutes, all of the panic was for nothing… I was fine! It turns out that if it is fried in peanut oil, I can eat it regardless of my allergy because the oil only adds flavor, it doesn’t affect me for whatever reason. What a relief!
