Jasmin,

I feel like I was cheated because we didn’t get to have you very long in the fifth grade. Would you consider coming back to us? Flexibility is very important. Keep that up and you will live to be a very bendable old lady.

I would love to go back to fifth grade Mrs. Calhoun!

Agreed!

There is NO WAY I could do this! I’m so happy that someone can though, and that’s why we have gymnasts and acrobats! Very cool girls.

Haha, it’s really not all that bad!
jasmin rossi on December 5th, 2018 7:20 am

Mr. Ostrowski, who knows? I can show you a few stretches!
jasmin rossi on December 5th, 2018 7:23 am

Merci Dr. Blackman!
jasmin rossi on December 5th, 2018 7:24 am

Thanks Nicholas, but it’s really not that bad!
