Please help me pass my (math) (English) (social studies) (theology) test today.
Help my best friend, Charley, to (pass) (fail) his.  Please forgive my sins,
specifically (putting gum on Darlene's seat) (telling Darlene that Charley
secretly has a crush on her) (gluing Miss Anderson's eraser to the chalkboard).
Help me by striking Charley's father (blind) (deaf) (bumb) (all three) untill
me and Charley can get our rocket fuel experiment cleaned up in his basement.

Please send a (pillar of fire) (locusts) (the Red Sea) into the principal's

Grant extraordinary powers of creation to the cooks, that they might turn
government surplus (Spam) (peanut butter) (chipped beef) into an edible lunch.

Thank you for letting Jimmy Brooks fall off the monkey bars yesterday at recess
and break his (wrist) (nose) (ankle).  We were supposed to meet after school
last night and fight.

Thank you for (big sisters) (big brothers) who can write reports and make it
look like my handwriting.
