of the quarter came, tammy and sammy had both planned on going to the enchanted castle amusement park, but mr. morton called sammy’s mother, and she grounded sammy until he turned in all of his work. that weekend was horrible for sammy. he stayed up until 2: 00 am each night and still couldn’t complete all of the assignments. the whole while, tammy had a great time eating pizza at enchanted castle, watching movies late at night, and enjoying her weekend free of stress and pressure. at the end of the quarter, sammy was lucky to squeak by with a “c” minus in reading while tammy earned an “a.” sammy still hasn’t learned his lesson and probably won’t complete this activity either.
