Happy Birthday to You!

Happy Birthday to You

By: Samantha, Scarllet and Karla

Giuseppe the koala wakes up in the morning.

“It’s my sixth year celebrating Valentine’s Day. This holiday is very easy for me to remember because it is on my birthday! I’m going to make sure it’s the best one yet.”

“Valentine’s Day is always on the 14th of février , and this year it’s on vendredi.”

February-(fev-ree-yeh)

Friday-(vaun-druh-dee)

Since its my birthday, I’m going to wear my favorite pair of chaussures bleus. I only wear them on special occasions. I’m going to be extra careful; mommy and daddy would be really mad if I let anything happen to them.

Blue shoes-(show-seur) (bluh)

Daddy keeps rushing me, I guess he doesn’t understand the importance of my big entrance.

“Mr. Hibou isn’t going to be too pleased if you’re late, Giuseppe,” my dad says impatiently.

“You’re going to be late!”

Owl-(ee-boo)

We were a little late, but we finally left the maison.”

House-(maze-aw)

Mr. Hibou never really seems to be pleased with me. Maybe it has something to do with me not paying attention in class and talking too much, blah blah blah.

I finally arrive to school, I have about two minutes to be in my pupitre and be ‘ready to learn’ as Mr.

Hibou always says. Student desk- (pooh-pee-tr)

My mère is always in charge of bringing petits gâteaux. All I can think about is Mr. Hibou saying, “Giuseppe your mère is here.”

“Your mère is here!”

Mother-(mer)Cupcake-(deh) (peuh-tee) (gaa-tooh)

As I said before its Valentine’s Day so we’re going to have a party. You know, pizza, drinks, cards, petits gâteaux, and so on.

Finally its 2:30 and we’re setting up for the party. My mère finally walks through the door, Mr. Hibou says, “Your mère has a surprise.”

She walks in with petits gâteaux, pizza, cookies, and drinks and the whole class yells “BON ANNIVERSAIRE!” I couldn’t believe it was all for me. This was the best birthday ever.

“BON ANNIVERSAIRE

À VOUS!!!”

Happy birthday-(bon) (an-nee-ver-ser)
