The Spelling Bee!!!

On Monday,December 17, we had a class spelling bee. It was very awkward at the moment of the spelling bee, because everybody was very nervous.


We had to start off by saying the word, and then spelling, then confirming the word again. Some people had a hard time on that.


I missed on the word “costume”. I knew how to spell it but I totally forgot at the moment.
The three finalists were Paulina,Josie,and Brandon in Mrs.Thompson’s class, Katie Grace, Beatrice, and Amber in Mrs.Wilcox’s class. CONGRATS TO THEM!!!

I’m glad we did this because its very fun!!! Its more about the fun than the winning!

Awesome Science Project

Hey guys,

So yesterday in science Ms.Thompson said that we are going to do a project about land forms. We had to make different land forms out of clay. We were split up into groups of four.I was in the group with the green poster board. We made a mesa,a volcano,delta,sinkhole,and a mountain.After we were done making the land forms we had to paint them. Today we finished making them. I think we did a good job.It was a messy project.

Flying virus

In school a lot of people are getting sick with the flu,fevers,and coughs,. Every day up to 5 people  are absent a class! This applies for teachers and students. Staying home on a school day is so not fun, when you come back from school you have to do more learning than normal.Here are some easy ways to keep YOU from getting sick or when you are sick...

  • washing your hands,

  • covering your mouth when you sneeze or cough,

  • getting a good nights rest, and

  • taking medicine when needed.


To every one who is sick , I hope you get better soon!

The Benchmark....

Yay! Benchmark testing is here! For the second time. And this year there's science too. Next week we are doing the benchmark. Tuesday we are doing reading, Wednesday is math and Thursday is science. Doing the benchmark is VERY slow and not very fun. At all.

We have been getting ready by practicing, LOTS of practicing. We do it in library, math, reading, pretty much EVERY class. I don't like it but I guess it's good for the teachers to see what we know.

This week has been very busy. One really exciting was that Mrs.Wilcox is having a baby! We found out about two weeks ago, but she did not tell us if its a girl or a boy.
So just this Monday she brought two posters.One was for a girl and the other was for a boy. Team blue was holding the boy poster and team girl was holding the pink poster. I was with team blue. When the time came to tell everybody gathered around Mrs.Wilcox. I was anxious to know!!! She told us that the board that goes up is the one. All of a sudden...
THE BLUE ONE GOES UP!!!
I was so happy. Team pink was a bit disappointed but still congratulated Mrs.Wilcox!
I hope the best to Mrs.Wilcox!!!
