Spring Break Adventure
Spring Break Adventure | Jessica Yellowknife
11 posts | 1 read
What would two pre teenagers do on their spring break with a working mother and being stuck with a babysitter with no clue on what kids are like today. What kind of adventure could they have? What would you do, if you were them? Any ideal! Alyssa and Jack are always pulling tricks on each other, to see who would be the first one to go crawling crying like a big baby to their Mom. These two don't get along like most brother and sister, its vinegar and oil on most days. They just don't mix but always have each other back. Alyssa decided to go to her room and lie on her bed and think about what she would like to achieve on her spring break. She slips into a deep sleep. Meanwhile Jack plans on fabricating a train that could run off the solar energy of the sun, so that it would protect the environment from pollution. Alyssa starts to get a high fever and her imagination runs wild and Jack meets up with his two best friends Mark and Pagie and the adventure of a lifetime begin. One is living his and the other dreaming her adventure away. Which one will have the best adventure or will they come together as one, friends and all.

My school is on Spring Break next week. I plan to spend a good amount of time cleaning, but I'd also like to spend lots of time reading, so this is me inviting everyone to read with me. Create your own goals, just read and have fun.

CarolynM My 2 favourite films are All About Eve and It Happened One Night. I got to see them both on the big screen with an audience a few years ago when a local cinema had a season of classic movies. It made me love them even more. 13mo
TheBookHippie @CarolynM I just love old Hollywood movies. How cool to see them on a big screen!!!! 13mo

Spring break!!!!!! Also it‘s APRIL TOMORROW 🤯

We are spring cleaning - organising, napping, movie watching and Chinese food eating. And reading of course!
Spring Break we watch oldies for movies -so any suggestions we will take!

IndoorDame Have a blast! You deserve a fun, restful week! I‘m super jealous, our spring break isn‘t for another 2 weeks 😢 13mo
TheBookHippie @IndoorDame oh that‘s a wait yet 😝 we plan to enjoy being home! 13mo
Bookzombie I think you need to quantify oldies. 🙂 Sometimes I hear movies from my youth being called classics. Lol. 13mo

TheBookHippie @Bookzombie 😅 2000 is the cut off … we try to do 1930-1990 🤣 13mo
TheBookHippie @Bookzombie I prefer 1930-1970 🤣 13mo
JenlovesJT47 Anything with Cary Grant or William Holden! Arsenic & Old Lace (1944) is my favorite Cary movie. Also with WH Stalag 17 (1953) is a great WWII movie. Can‘t go wrong with Picnic (1955) or Sunset Boulevard! Honorable mention to a lesser known but amazing Cary Grant movie, People Will Talk (1951). 13mo
TheBookHippie @JenlovesJT47 YAY A LIST!! thank you I've got it all written down! 13mo
TheBookHippie @JenlovesJT47 All are at the library on DVD except People Will Talk, Now to look for it! Thanks again!! Our holds work quickly so I'll have them by Monday!! 13mo
Bookzombie Arsenic and Old Lace would be on my list too, along with His Girl Friday. Also, I enjoy the 1949 Little Women. I do wonder how some will hold up because I haven‘t seen them in a while, If A Man Answers and Pillow Talk. Rebecca. 13mo
vlwelser Rear Window. Charade. What's New Pussycat? (If we can overlook Woody Allen on the screenplay). Upvotes for Rebecca and Arsenic. Bringing Up Baby. 13mo
vlwelser Harvey (1950, Jimmy Stewart). I'll stop now. I could do this all day. 13mo
TheBookHippie @Bookzombie We watched all the Little Women in December I think it was 4 of them and I did enjoy the 1949! I do not like the new one and the Winona Ryder is still my favorite!! OH I love His Girl Friday now I need to find that! Added the others as well! Thank you! 13mo
TheBookHippie @vlwelser I'm going to reach the 20 movie limit at the library YAY!! LOL (edited) 13mo
dabbe The Maltese Falcon, The Big Sleep, To Have and Have Not, Key Largo, Double Indemnity, Gaslight, Casablanca, Rebecca's already been mentioned, but it's so good!, That Hamilton Woman ... oh, and if you want one that predicts the type of character our former president turned out to be, watch A Face in the Crowd. Now I want to watch old movies! Hope you have a fabulous break! ❣️ 13mo
TheBookHippie @dabbe ohhh I love Casablanca !!! Added the rest to the list!!! It‘s cold -rain sleet hail here and maybe snow. Movies it is! 13mo
mrp27 I always love to watch Funny Face in the spring. 13mo
TheBookHippie @mrp27 oh that‘s a good one!!! ☑️ 13mo

March will mark one year of lockdowns and stay at home orders here in Ontario. So let's live vicariously and travel virtually together. Join @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks and me for #LitsySpringBreak as we travel from local sites to far flung places, and everything in between!

Post a favourite book, quote, author, setting, character, whatever comes to mind for each of our "locations", tag your hosts, and don't forget the hashtag.

Thanks for playing!

Tattooedteacher Heckin‘ this is a wonderful idea! 3y

Apparently Litsy is going to be down...really she's probably just going to celebrate spring break !! Let's hope she returns the same loveable girl and not some version of herself !!! I will inevitably try to post about some cool bookstore I've found on vacation and be frustrated until I hopefully remember !!!! It's almost spring break !!!!

DivineDiana Thank you for update! 6y

Spring Break is over. I managed to finish four books over the break. 🏅🎉 Now, this is my reading until summer 😏#teachersoflitsy

ClairesReads That‘s an awesome looking rubric- are they specific to yourself, school or state?ours are SO VAGUE 6y
APLitlife @ClairesReads , it is mine. It is part of a unit I found on TPT on writing a Literary Analysis. I usually make mine specific so that the kids know what they did. 6y
