Blog post from 5/10/16: Hey It's Concert Day and Recess, by Gracyn

Today is Spring Concert day.  'm so happy except I still don't have my clothes for it.  But I do know what my hair is going to be like.  But back to the concert.  Try to wear 70s clothe but if you can't just wear nice clothes.  Tonight we will be singing 70s Dance and Romance, 70s Gold, Candy Man, Jackson 5, YMCA, Boogie Fever, We Will Rock You, and Thank God I'm a Country Boy.  We will also be serving sundaes after the concert.  Today we are going to practice before our concert in school hours after morning meeting.  So basically we are practicing all of those songs I had just said.

The question for morning meeting was if you could put anything on a billboard what would it be?  Then we had about ten minutes before practice so we talked about what we would be doing in practice.  We played word all words.  After practice we went to recess.  At recess I played with Ryan, Jaden, and Oliver.  We played tag.  Second recess me, Jaden, and J'Aunna played tag.  That was fun.

Friday is Care Center.  The 16h is Track and Field Day.  Main Street Mile is on the last day of school.

Seniors Cross the Halls and Reading, by Hadley

Today the seniors from High School are walking in the hall for graduation.  So in the middle of math we stopped and went into the hall.  Our student helper Mayra crossed the hall.  During first round I did work on writing.  I am writing a script.  I drew a picture for it and the costumes.  2nd round I had teacher table.  Third round I did my favorite, journal.  We have to wait for fourth round.  While we were waiting we planted shoots from our spider plant.  Last round I was with Mr. Johnson to work on my blog post.

Friday is Care Center day.  Track and field day is Monday the 16th.  The last day of school is May 18th.  Don't forget the Main Street Mile.  I am proud of Alexia today for playing outside at recess yesterday and today.

Math and Calendar Assignment, by Aleigha

Today we are doing calendar.  It is where there is a kid doing it, and when the timer goes off it means the rest of the kids have to clean up.  The calendar helper is Eduardo.  He did very well.  We are doing Math and my partner is Erica.  We are doing a scavenger hunt and we are looking for objects that are 1 foot, centimeter, and other lengths.  We worked hard to do it ourselves.  Gracyn is a math ninja for the year.  You have to get mixed review addition to be math ninja.  We have 7 math ninjas.

May 3rd we return book orders.  May 6th is our field trip.  May 10th is the concert.

I am proud of everyone today for working hard on math and paying attention to the calendar helper.

Poetry, by Alexia

Today in poetry we did a poem called A Life Cycle of a Butterfly.  It was to the rhythm of Row, Row, Row Your Boat Gently Down the Stream.  The poem was meant to sing but Mr. Johnson said we didn't have to.  I sung to Hadley, Colt Lynn, and Adela.  The funny thing was that when me and Adela sung together Eduardo and Lane went at the exact same time as us!  I was happy because it was pretty quiet during poetry.  I drew a picture of an egg, a caterpillar, a chrysalis, and a butterfly to represent each step in the life cycle of a butterfly.  I like poetry because I like drawing pictures to go with the poems.

On May 6 we have a field trip.  We also have a concert on May 10.
