Snow Day Memories

1/26/2023

 
    Watch the video above that a teacher has made about how she feels about snow days.  I found this video so entertaining, what a fun teacher she must be. Snow days are the neatest thing for teachers because it’s one of those things that you don’t lose as you grow up.  Teachers and students love snow days the same way. They’re a freebie day, one that you don’t expect and then when they come, they’re totally yours. 
    For your blog post this week, I’d like you to write about the best snow day that you can remember. Remember, when you write a retell, it’s all about capturing the day by using descriptive words and bringing the reader into the experience with you. I will start with my example.

    I woke up early, thinking, yes, there’s definitely a chance.  I rushed to the window and excitedly pulled back the curtain.  “Jacey, wake up!!! SNOW DAY!!!”.  She didn’t move so I picked up the iPad and checked the website, it was real, a real snow day!” I knew that I would make the most of this day with both Jacey and Vera. We called up our other teacher friends and after a gruelling hour of shovelling, met up with them for a snowy walk downtown. As we all got hot chocolates and coffee at the shop, Vera fell fast asleep in the coffee shop. After taking her picture, I realised, snow days are family days now!

I do not remember the day I had a snow day, but usually I do what I do on the weekend. Such as playing my Xbox, playing outside in the snow, playing my iPad and playing my Nintendo. Those are activities that I do on the weekend and for a snow day.

The best snow day i remember is when i was small i was 8 and me and my family made a huge igloo. There was so much snow we had inufe to build it. We used water and snow, it was really fun but sadley it melted from the sun. We still had a lot of fun. that is the best snowy day i can remember. Once my brother and sister had made a tunnel too we worked a lot but we finally did it it was big and we could fit througe easily too. Those are the snowy days. The End.

The AWESOME snow day i remember was when the snow went up to my knee and it was really fun that day. But we had to scoop it up with the shuvle and make it into a really big mountain. I just can't imagine how fun it was but sadly my little house i made broke down. And that was the best fun day i remember in the snow.☃❄. :D

The day was January 17 2022 and we had up to 50 cm of snow. I looked out the window and oh my gosh, it was literaly up to my chest. So I thought it must be a snow day and my mom said it was. I was so excited and happy. We shoveled our whole area and brushed the snow off our car and later that day we went sledding on Upper Middle. Then we went to the field next to my house and built a fort. That was the best winter snow day!

Based on what I remember, the best snow day I had was last year. It was mid January, and I remember my parents telling me it was a snow day! I was so excited, and Abby and I met up to play in her backyard. We built an amazing snow fort, and a very small snow slide. When are visit was over, I remember hoping and predicting that the next day was going to be a snow day too! Pretty much no one believed that, but the next day also ended up being a snow day! I was so happy we got two snow days in a row.

As I can remember, On 2018, me and my grandparent was planning to go sledding on November. a month later, the time has began. We went outside, and made snow angels and snowmen, playing snowball fight and freeze tag near a park. We went sledding, just as me and my grandparents were planning for our winter break. the ground was slippery, and we couldn't get up after falling down. But we didn't even care about. It was a great time. we enjoyed it.

On 2016 February I i have a memory waking up to a snow day at my grandparents homestead and my grandma proceeded to shovel the snow into a single big 2 meter pile (the snow back then was about 2-3 feet tall) and I owned a yamaha sled and I went down briskly

I woke up at 7:22am on a cold snowy day in January. After I brushed my teeth, I started getting ready for school when my mom and dad said that it was a snow day. I was so happy for two reasons. The first reason was that it was snowing and the second reason was because I didn't have to go to school… so double win for me! YAY.

Around 8 o’clock am, I heard my mom talking to my Aunt and Uncle. They live in New Market and I like to go there to visit my cousins Miah and Khera. They also had a Snow day. My mom and dad made a plan with my uncle for us to go have a day of fun in New Market. The car ride was pretty long and kind of boring but I was still excited to see my cousins and have so much fun together!

The first thing we did when we got to New Market was play hide and go seek. It was big sisters against baby sisters. Miah and I hid and Samirah and Khera were suppose to find us, but after 10 minutes they couldn’t find us so they decided to go get a snack. Miah and I were hiding for forever until we got hungry too, and we found them in the kitchen eating some yummy snacks.

After we ate, we watched a t.v. show called K.C. Undercover. It is about a teenage girl who is a spy, and her family members are spies too. After the show was over, we went to the basement where my cousins have a huge play area with tons of toys. We painted our fingernails with nail polish, it was fun, until Miah accidentally tripped and knocked over the nail polish bottle. There was a big stain on the mat, but don’t worry we just decided to flip the mat over.

The last fun activity of the night was to watch a movie and eat dinner together. My Aunt and Uncle asked us to choose between getting pizza or sushi. Me and Miah wanted sushi but Khera and Samirah wanted pizza. Since we had a tie, my Aunt and Uncle decided to get us both! We got so lucky.The sushi arrived first and then the pizza. We had about 50 brightly coloured pieces of sushi and 4 cheesy smelling boxes of pizza. We all watched Hotel Transylvania 4 on the giant screen t.v., loaded up the plates of food and had an awesome time together.

After the movie we had to go home but it was the best snow day ever!

The last snow day I remember, was last year on a Monday, and I was NOT happy. I wasn't happy because I had just got a new shirt, and I really wanted to go to school. But, I did end up having fun playing in the snow outside in the front while my mom was shoveling, and cleaning off the car in the drive way.
Then, I wore my new shirt again hoping to wear it to school, and show it to my friends, when the most unpredictable thing happened to me! The next day on Tuesday, IT WAS ANOTHER SNOW DAY! I was so annoyed, but (Again) I ended up having a good time. Also, the best part about having a snow day(According to me), is you get to play in the snow, eat nice and warm food, and watch a tone of movies! When it's a day like that, my family and I, take different turns picking what movies we watch!

Ok so this story about my favourite snowday. So I just came back from my cottage the other day and actrully talked with them about my other snow days and I also said" Imagine there is a snowday" When I got back I got to see my torn down kitchen because it was getting renovations. I also got to see my new "living area" because I had to live in my besement . After that I watched some sports and then ate dinner and then i had to go to bed because I had " school the next day". My mom told me that we we're going to get some snow to get my snowpants in the morning but I saw something saying that there was a small chance of a snowday so just went to bed.I woke up around 12 midnight and I looked out the window and there was some snow but not enough for a snowday.When it was 7:00 am and I woke up and my mom was still just waking up and I was confused why my mom was not up until The big word UNTIL I looked outside and there was about like 2 feet or 3 feet of snow and I already knew that there was going to be a snowday. I was super happy about that and when I went to my basemenet and The windows we're no light just snow.i had to shovel the best I could and then my friend bryce played in the snow and made a huge snowfort.I was super happy what i got to do but I was already thinking that I had to go back to school got cancelled and I got to make a snow staircase. This was easily my favouite snowday.

THE END!

So last year I looked outside and there was a bunch of snow, so I immediately went outside and started gathering snow so I can make an igloo After it was finished I tried to go in it. I could go inside but it was not that spacious. Then I played more until I got so cold and had to go in and have some hot coco I then sat on the couch and watched a movie. That was my favorite snow day ever.

MY favourite snow day is... HmmmMMMMMm
Well I think i was 8 or 9 and there was a snow day with lots of snow, and I went outside that morning, and almost was buried alive in my pajamas. So I decided not to go outside just yet. Then later in the day I went outside(finally) and somehow got out of shovelling the driveway-I made this HUGgeee snow fort because thats what you do on a snow day- And then kenzie came over we were in the fort and almost broke it and I think I lost this cringy LOL doll and because I was a greedy child I was so mad. I haven't seen it since... Maybe it died a painful death of hypothermia and got strangled by a dog, never to be seen agian. Or it was taken- Not sure which one. ANYwAy I went inside had hot chocolate wth extra marshmallows and THEN just kidding. theres nothing else-

From what I remember of having a snow day is that I woke up at 7:30 ish AM think why my parents haven't told me to wake up yet but then I rapidly rushed to brush my teeth and then I had just figured out that it was a snow day then I yelled at Arzoie (My sister) "ARZOIE WAKE UP IT'S A SNOW DAAYYYY" but she clearly just put her pillow over her head and ignored me ( typical seven year old's ) Anyway then my dad came inside and told me after I eat I could go outside . after I ate I went outside and touched the crunchy snow I found my cousins were playing in the snow too and we enjoyed playing and making a slide out of ice and snow !!!

I remember it like it was yesterday as it was the best snow day ever. It was February 2022, I was asleep and my alarm went off, so like any normal human being, I hit snooze. Normally my parents would wake me up but ten minutes had past and nothing from them, now 20 mins later, still nothing from my parents. I got to the point where I just got up myself and went down stairs and asked my dad "where's breakfast"? My dad replied with "I'll make later. By the way, it's a snow day". This changed my life forever because if that snow day didn't happen I would have never met one of my best friends. Here's how I met him. After those 2 words (snow day), I bolted up to my room and called my BFF William and not shockingly he picked up. He was not even out of bed yet but I told him ITS A SNOW DAY GET UP NOW! He replied with okay okay i'm up. I said "hop on Roblox" and he said "OK just let me get dressed" and then I heard his computer beep. It was a notification and William asked if I wanted to hop on a call with one of his other friends. I replied with "sure why not" and I am SO glad I said yes and got to meet Alex. Alex is the type of chill guy, who he is very nice and fun to hang out. We introduced ourselves and became instant friends. That unfortunately, is all I can remember so this is where I will have to end. Good bye, for now.

One day I woke up and looked out my window and their was a lot of snow. I went down stairs and went to my parents and asked them is it a snow day and they said yes so I ran back upstairs and went back into my bed and sleep in at that point it was 7:45 and then I woke up at 11:30 in the afternoon and I felt amazing. Then I went outside and took my dog for a walk of course then I got back and went to go see if my friend wanted to play and she did. Then we got back to my house and we played outside for 2 and a half hours it was fun but we were cold. So then I walked her home and then I walked back to my house and said to myself look at the roads they are clear so maybe I can ask my mom to take me to Starbucks so I went and asked her. So she said yes so I ran to the car and jumped in and off we went, I was so happy. Then when I got home it was about 4:00 and I had the idea to sit and watch the Toronto Maple Leaf game because I love Hockey and I love The Toronto Maple Leafs they started at 5:00 that night so I decided to cook dinner. I cooked pasta my favourite and my parents loved that I made dinner for the whole family. Then The leaf game was over and they won 5-1 against ottawa it was an incredible game and my top 4 favourite leafs players all scored. Then I said lets watch a movie so we did it was really good. We had snacks and soda and water and it was fun. At this point its 12:00. Overall It was a fun night but I was tired the next day.

I got up at 6:55 with a great feeling that it might be a snow day because it was snowing when I went to sleep last night. I go downstairs and Evelyn is already there watching YouTube. I go into my kitchen, look out my glass doors, and saw WHITE everywhere, "YES!" I shouted excitedly but not to loud so my parents wouldn't wake up. Evelyn stood up on the couch confused as ever, so I tell her to come into the kitchen. She came into the kitchen and saw all the snow through the glass door, we jumped up and down knowing it was a snow day. We watched YouTube and played Roblox waiting for our parents to come downstairs. It was about 8:30 when my parents woke up, and we waited for the exciting news. "Well...It's a snow day alright." My dad said not as excited as we were. A bit later my dad told us to get our gear on. We guessed it was because he was sending us in the backyard, but NO. he took us to the hill near shoppers and we went tobogganing. It was SO fun the only downside was that we had to walk back up the hill, it was so tiring to walk back up (especially with snowpants on.) We went home about an hour later and had hot chocolate. I tried to detangle Evelyns hair because long hair is normally REALLY tangly after doing something outside with all their gear on and moving around and such. (It sucks believe me) I tried so hard not to hit her head with the brush because of all the "OW!" I heard. After I fixed Evelyns rat nest we watched a movie on Disney Plus. We watched movie's until dinner, We ate dinner then watched MORE movies but with popcorn! We eventually went to bed, and I thought to myself "Best snow day ever."
