Red Ribbon Week by Julia L.

This week at school, we have had a Red Ribbon Week. On every day, we wore things differently then we usually would. On Monday, the first day, we wore hats. That represented to put a cap on drugs! On Tuesday, we dressed the same as a friend. That meant to help friends be drug free! On Wednesday, we wore mix matched clothes. That meant that, drugs and I don't mix! We could have won a prize the next day for the most mix matched, but I didn't get one. My friends got some, so that was good! On Thursday, we had to wear a shirt with a number on it, and that meant, count on me to be drug free! And finally, on Friday, it was a red out day. That meant, love yourself and be drug free! I always enjoy this part of the year! But, it is my last year at Chase, and I had a great last Red Ribbon Week!

Trapeze!!! By Brighton

I go to a place called Canopy where I learn to do trapeze. I love trapeze so much! There are so many things to do! Every Saturday my friends and I go to class, where we learn tricks and routines. In December we are going to do a show. We recently started our routine. So far it is not too hard but we did start our routine a week ago. My next class is tomorrow, and I am really excited! I hope we use the sea horse in it! Since it is a Christmas show our theme is going to be The Nightmare before Christmas. I wonder if we will look good? I can't wait to find out!

A Series of Unfortunate Events by Jack

Let me tell you about my favorite book series, The Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket. It is about three children who have lost their parents in a fire while they were at the beach. The kids, Klaus,Violet,and Sunny were unaware of this until bank owner Mr.Poe told them. However their parents owned rare sapphires that were not burned down in the fire. They are going to get it back when they are older,but they have a mean guardian named Count Olaf who tried to steal their fortune. He dresses up in a lot of disguises to get the children's  fortune. They meet a lot of people on the way and experience things that were really unfortunate. This is why it is my favorite book series. I hope you try it.

Fall Festival From Caleb Miller

Hi, my name is Caleb. On Saturday, I went to a fall festival and it is located where they built a building called Northeast Georgia Bank. I won a golden medal for a hula hoop contest. They had me to pat my head and rub my tummy while hula hooping and I was the only person standing. Next, I went on a big climbing ladder and when you get on the on the big slide and you slide down, you go super fast! After that, I had to hula hoop and wave at each car passing by and if you wave at least 10 cars you earn a prize and my brother had not won anything, so I gave my brother a prize.I had enjoy the fall festival.

High Museum Trip By Julian

In a couple weeks, for art we are going on a trip to the High Museum. I'm not sure what exhibit we are going to see, but I know one thing: it will be super cool. I have been to the High Museum a couple of times already but I think this time will be a totally different experience because the past couple of times I've been it's just been two people, me and my grandma, but this time it will be the whole 5th grade. When we go we will be taking huge charter buses that supposedly have TV's. I think this will be the coolest field trip I've ever done before because It's a long way away in Atlanta. When we go you better not be late because we are leaving really as soon as we get to school then get back even after everybody else in the school has gone home.

Monsters,By Brighton.

Are last writing assignment was on monsters(its almost Halloween!). In this assignment we created a monster. Then we drew it  using the description that we wrote.next we typed it. Then we gave are printed description to are partner,and they gave there's to us,and we tried to draw each others. It was all very confusing,but we figured it out. At the end most looked pretty different from the original,but it was really fun. I wonder what will happen with haunted houses!:)

Today's Weather Report by Jack

I know that  some big storms are happening in this area so let me share what I know about the weather in the area.You might not believe it but we have flash floods and flood warnings which are going to be intense. We are just getting started. You are going to find out what is coming: lots of lightning in the area with lots and lots of thunder and maybe we will not be able to drive. I think you will never believe this but there are strong winds that are going sixty miles per hour and the winds are so strong that the winds are knocking cars off the street. There might be a warning that says do not drive until the storm is over. I hope that does not happen because I want to see my parents and I want to be outside playing soccer and having a lot of fun.

I have to swim for 30 minutes .After the 30 minutes ,we headed to Rock Climbing after swimming lessons.It was my first time being at Rock Climbing .It was fun because you get to have a change to climb up and after you get to the red and blue bar and you get to swing all around the place . Close to the end ,we got to have a change to go on tire swing . I liked how high we got to the top  of the rock climbing and we spun very fast.

Skate night By Julian

PTO is having a skate night soon. This is one of my favorite school related events of the year. Everybody at school including teachers come. They play music, play games, eat food, etc. When you go there are really good skaters and there are beginner skaters, also all grade levels can come pre-k through 5th grade and some pre-k students are better skaters than 5th graders!

Baseball Games by Julia L.

My little brother has baseball games every Sunday and Tuesday. He is 6, so he does Coach Pitch. It is SOOOOO boring! (Most of the time). He plays at Holland Park. He has about 8 or 9 kids on his team. They are all short, but good at playing! His team name is Raymond and James. They all have names of different brands and places like that. I don't even know what Raymond and James is! We like to call them the RJ's. Sometimes, I get to help out in the dugout! Back to the boringness, luckily my cousin/best friend--who is 3 weeks younger than me-- is coming this Sunday, so I won't be as bored! She has 2 little brothers, and they are both a year apart from MY brother, so they are best friends. They really want to see my brother play! I like to see my brother play most of the time!
