My favorite fall activity is playing in the leaves. I like playing in the leaves with my baby brother. He is two years old and he goes crazy playing in the leaves. That’s why I like it so much. Playing in leaves I think is just relaxing. It gives you air and freedom!
Riley Brock, 6th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Gibson
Football and basketball are my favorite fall activities. I play football for the TCYFL. It’s a league in the Tri-Cities. I love football and play it every year since I could, which was six years old. But football is my second favorite sport. Basketball is my favorite sport of all time. I play is directly after football. I play school basketball first. Then, I play travel basketball for about six months. It’s tournaments that are all over the world. It is awesome and I really like it. Those are my favorite fall activities.
Hayden Hobbs, 6th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Gibson
My favorite thing to do in fall is to decorate. I just love to decorate with bone-chilling decorations you can put out in your yard to scare people. I also love the pretty fall decorations with red, yellow, orange, and brown leaves. There are also very pretty Thanksgiving decorations. I just love to decorate.
Raven Burgan, 6th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Gibson
I like to play football in the fall. My friends and I like to play two-hand touch football or flag football. Then, I would play basketball two versus two. The teams are normally Andrew and me against Carson and Brandon. Sometimes we play spotlight. It’s a game where two people go in a high spot on a room or something with a flashlight and they have to find you from up there before we get to them.
Jakob Crowder, 6th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Gibson
My favorite thing to do during fall is carve pumpkins because I like to make designs and to get my hands dirty.

My favorite activity in fall is Halloween because I love candy and dressing up in scary costumes, but not to scare little kids.
Chelsea Ayers, 6th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Gibson
Halloween. We get to spend time with our families, get candy, and dress up like any costume you want. That’s why I love Halloween.
Daniel Moore, 6th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Gibson
One of my favorite fall activities is to make a leaf pile and jump in it. My friends and I once made a leaf pile so big that we could all jump in it at the same time. My other favorite activity is Halloween. I love Halloween because you can be whatever you want. I also like it because I get a lot of candy.
K.K. Gibson, 6th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Gibson
My favorite fall activity is football. I love football season. My dad coaches Lee High School’s football team. It is always fun to go to games. At games I always get to see my friends and watch the game with them. After the games we go on the field and my friends and I play a football game of our own. Then we go up to the locker room and get the uniforms and take them home to wash. That is why my favorite fall activity is football.
Kaelyn Pendergraft, 6th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Gibson
My favorite fall activities are participating in face painting, games, pumpkin decorating, and trick-or-treating. It’s the time of the year when you can get together and have fun and do all kinds of different spectacular activities and be your favorite superhero, supervillain, and all kinds of different other things for Halloween. It’s all about having fun and enjoying yourself.
Madison King, 6th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Gibson
My favorite fall activity is looking at all the beautiful leaves! My favorite leaves are the red and yellow leaves. Sometimes my family and I build leaf piles and jump into them! I want to make a book and fill it with leaves and what makes them alike and different. I love seeing the trees on the mountain turn colors. It looks like an orange wave splashed all over them! I love leaves in the fall!
Caylea Ellis, 6th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Gibson
If I am being honest I don’t have a favorite fall activity, I love it all! Whether it be lighting fall candles, trick-or-treating, or watching leaves fall—I love it! So I may not be able to list all the reasons why. Just know I think fall is amazing!
Mia Jerrell, 6th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Gibson
Halloween is my favorite fall activity. It’s my favorite because it is amazing. My favorite horror movies come on. Disney Channel becomes “Monstober.” We dress up like monsters, heroes, villains, and so much more. My favorite thing about it is that you get to be something or someone that you’re not.
Shirley Washburn, 6th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Gibson

Going trick-or-treating and going to the Pumpkin Show. On the day of trick-or-treating, I get a day to dress up as anyone and go to parties and go house to house getting sweets. The Pumpkin Show is a festival in Ohio full of everything pumpkin. There is a rollercoaster ride and pumpkin stuff. It is huge and around three times smaller than Six Flags! Autumn is so fun!

Brynnen Pendergraft, 6th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Gibson

Erica Pilon, 6th, Jonesville Middle, Mrs. Gibson
My favorite is Halloween. Why, you ask? Because you get to dress up as anything you want. My favorite part is that some of my dogs and I dress up. Last year my golden retriever and I were a bride and groom. This year we are going to be a lion tamer and a lion. Next year I am going to be a fox and he’s going to be the hound. But that is all I really know. But anyway…Happy early Halloween everyone.

I play basketball through fall, so that’s probably my favorite activity. It’s my favorite activity because I love basketball. It’s my favorite sport. We take it seriously but, sometimes you just have to have a little fun. My stepdad is the coach. He doesn’t like coaching boys though he likes teaching girls to play their hardest. My favorite part of basketball is getting to be aggressive. I like to be able to get aggressive and not get in trouble. I also like making new friends and you make lots of friends through basketball.

My favorite fall thing is the Tobacco Festival Beauty Pageant. I love sitting in the dressing room and getting all prepped up. I love the adrenaline and ten days after my birthday is the excitement. I’m getting a turquoise and purple dress and purple heels. I’m just so excited. I hope I can win and be in the parade. It is so exciting. My hair is going to be wavy and we get our very own dressing rooms. I’m so, so excited. Wish me luck. Goodbye.

Jackson Light, 4th, Miller Perry Elementary, Mrs. Jeffers
This paragraph tells the downsides of fall activities. Halloween has scary items like graves and skeletons. Football happens mainly in the fall and sometimes the halftime show has too many lights. Also some football players get seriously injured. When you jump in a leaf pile you cannot check for spiders. Also jumping in the leaves makes you itchy. All of that is horrible.
Liam Whitehead, 4th, Miller Perry Elementary, Mrs. Jeffers
Fall is coming it’s so cool! Do you like autumn? Here is some stuff I like about fall. Football is one of my favorite autumn activities because it’s when I get to play flag football!
