ROAR Celabration

Yesterday we got to dress up for meeting our ROAR expectations. We dressed up like someone we admire or what we want to be when we get older! Then in the afternoon we got to go over to the high school and walk threw. We also got to walk threw Shady Rest Nursing Home. I really think the old people liked seeing our outfits.  When we got back the younger kids walked over to our end of the building and we got to see their costumes!  We also dressed because its the end of the quarter. It flew by so fast!

Jam The Van

This Friday we won Jam The Van. We brought I 110 items. Every class in the school had a box to fill up this whole week. The class that brought in the most wins a pizza party. We are going to have a pizza party sometime next week. Our class won last year too. The lady that runs the food pantry said " all these items that you brought in will help the food pantry for 1 whole year. I'm glad that we won! 

Basketball

We have had a couple of basketball practices. We have been working on speed dribbling and control dribbling. Also been working on hesitating,drive fakes, shot fakes, and pass fakes. Last practice we worked on plays. I don't know what position I will play yet. We have 2 plays so far. I'm thinking we will work on more next week. This weekend we have a basketball tournament! Last year we played in this tournament  we only won 1 game. We played 3 games and the last game we won that game and we played very good. That game was the funniest. We had 5 girls come up with a play it was Libby, Sydney, Julia, Alyssa, and me.
Our play was called Sparkle. Our coach didn't think that the play would work but, guess what it did. We did score and our coach was very happy! I am hoping that these games will go the same way. I'm very exited to play tomorrow! Hope we do good! :)

Red Ribbon Week

This next week at school we will be starting Red Ribbon Week. What we did last year was dress up and wear different clothes. One time it was western day, pajama day, and just dress up like anything we wanted. This year I don't know if we are going to do to dress up or what? I thought it was fun dressing up last year. Here is some info about Red Ribbon Week! http://www.imdrugfree.com/

The Hobbit Hole

I think this video is very cool. I don't think I could live in a Hobbit Hole. I think if I did I would need it to be huge, but I know and think they need to be small.  http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/trending-now/tiny-homes--man-lives-in-self-built-hobbit-hole-in-rural-oregon-164837144.html?vp=1

The big and fun week and weekend

This week went by very fast! It was very good though.

On Monday in science class we learned how floods can damage and wipe out cities and towns. We also had to learn how protect a city or town. So it didn’t get flooded. Our group dug out a spot around the town or city. Then all the water would go right to the hole and didn’t flood the town or city. The town or city was represented by cube. It was really fun. Our group tried it 2 times the first time it didn’t work. The 2^nd time that’s when we dug the hole and it worked. The 1^st time we just made a wall round the cube and it didn’t work. Science class was fun this week. On Monday also we had music and P.E. in music we learned how to play a song on the recorders. The song was the bean setting.

On Tuesday we had an Artist and Residence. They we telling us about ballet and how it got started. They were telling us also how the story of ballet got started. The lady that was talking about ballet also brought dancers with her. The dances wore clothes from the old days and some had clothes nowadays.

On Wednesday we had music we finished the song up on the recorders. In P.E we did pacers and finished up our batting unit. Now our new unit is volleyball.

On Thursday was a good day! We had a normal day. We had social studies and we were reviewing for the test. Then on Tuesday we took the test. I think I did pretty well.

On Friday was a normal day again. On Friday we had art. We are working on a painting. We took a picture and made it so it was updated and not so old. After school I and some more of my friends went to Nora’s and we went to a haunted house. It was very scary and very terrifying. I will never go back. People were coming at me from all angles. After the haunted house we went back to Nora’s house. That night we didn’t go to bed at all. I was very tired on Saturday and Sunday.     

On Saturday Nora’s mom took us home around 11. Then I had to go to soccer games. My brother won his first game. Then he played another game and lost.  My sister played 2 games and won both. After that we went to Pizza Hut.

On Sunday right away in the morning we took family pictures. Then we had soccer my brother played 1 game and lost. Then on the other hand my sister won and their team is undefeated. They had a very good team. After they played we went to Dairy Queen and got ice cream.

My week end was very big and fun.
