Welcome to Gameday

It's Saturday morning and it is time for college football. I am getting ready to go to the Ohio State game with my Mom today and I really hope they win.


I thought it would be fun if I picked five college games each week and tried to predict the winners. Who knows, maybe if I am good at it, ESPN will give me a job. Be sure to check back each week and see how I did with my picks.


Here are the five games I will be picking today:




  • Youngstown State at Ohio State - I pick The Buckeyes


  • Utah vs. Michigan - Even though I don't like them, I am going to pick Michigan


  • Hawaii vs. Florida - Just because my Dad likes the Gators, I will pick Florida


  • Illinois vs. Missouri - I am going with Missouri


  • Alabama vs. Clemson - I am not sure why but I am picking Clemson


Check back later in the weekend and I will update the scores of all these games.


Who is your favorite team from the list above? Reply back and let me know.



Go Bucks!

Thanks to every one who sent me their comments.

Today in class we plan to work on our mini me's. We're working on the heads today.

Friday is going to be exciting because the Buckeyes are going to play and every one gets to dress up in Buckeyes stuff. Be sure to check back on Friday because I will try to predict the score of this game and a few others. My dad is very excited that college football season is here.

All for now...I'm off to school.

Summer's Over, School Begins

Hi I'm Riley Carpenter and I go to Windermere Elementary School.This blog should help to keep you updated on life in the 4th grade.

School for us started on Wednesday August 20th.My teacher is Mrs.Lobao she is really cool. Right now were working on miniature models of ourselves. Mrs.Lobao calls them Mini Me's. This is alot of fun to create a miniature model of myself.

We had an assembly where we got to meet our new Principal, Mr. Scarpetti.
We also had some extra recess but that probably will not last much longer because we are going to be very busy.

Check back later to see how my first full week went!!
