I am a exclamation mark I get sad because a lot of kids forget about me and my piers. But I wish they wouldn’t ,but they do.Mostly its just the little kids that forget about us. But other than that they smell like cookies and eat dirt like there’s is no tomorrow ,so it really doesn’t matter to my piers but sometimes it does.I freak out when the kids don’t use me but sometimes I have to back down and think it through.So what I am going to do is talk to the kids about when to use a punctuation mark.If only I could get out of the house without any of the others seeing me .I am planning to leave when every body is asleep…As I check to make sure everybody is asleep I move slowly but surely to the door and… I MADE IT!I was very very proud of myself but I still had to get through the teachers.When the time came to make sure the teachers would not see me I was very successful.At the crack of dawn I hid myself in one of the kids cupboards and when they looked in the cupboard it did not go so well.Because dumb me said HI! and they freaked out because they ran out of the room saying THERE’S SOMETHING IN MY CUPBOARD!. When the kids heard him say that they all ran to the cupboard,but lucky for me I got inside his backpack and all the kids thought he was playing around. When the teacher went and looked and saw nothing she went and looked for the little boy so she told kids to work on something. While the kids were working I looked through a little bit of his papers and discovered his name was Josh. When the teacher came back with josh she showed him that nothing was in the cupboard,and she asked if she could talk to his mom on the phone and tell her what happened at school. when I tried to get out of joshes backpack I was stuck on one of the zippers,so I had to go home with him and hear his mom give him this harsh lecture about why he ran out of the class room and how he should not be making stuff up about what is in the classroom. But as time passed he had to do his homework and when he reached in to his backpack he found me. I was so scared then all he said was that he was not crazy, and I was real. While I was talking to josh he stood quiet and then he said I was a talking exclamation mark.And he was in shock,so he called his mom in to the room so she could see me. When she saw me she screamed to the top of her lungs, and she ran out of the room saying I GOING TO CALL YOUR TEACHER!. while she got use tot the fact that I was talking. We started talking more and she asked me why I was in his classroom and,so I said that I wanted to teach the kids about when to use punctuation marks. When I got the opportunity tot tell the kids why we were so important to use in their every day writing they understud why.The teacher could not believe what she was hearing. But later that day she got use to me and I got use to her screaming. When I told the others about my experience with the kids they got so excited about the whole thing,and they were excited about teacing the next group of kids.
