In 5th grade math this year we have learned about decimals, order of operations, and factors and multiples.
We get to do all kinds of fun activities, like high roller, adding and subtracting, card games etc. There are also boring things like scan-tron, benchmark, the C.R.C.T, etc, but it's not that bad to me.
I don't like home work that much but its OK. Some people love homework.
So that's what 5th grade is learning in math.

chorus
Every Friday 4th and 5th graders go to clubs during specials. Those kids get choices about what club they want to do. The choices are P.E., chorus, art, and engineering. All of these clubs do special project.
I only do chorus so I'm going to tell you what we do.
In chorus we are going on a field trip to a hospital.At the field trip we are going to sing a few songs and we are going to do a dance to one of the songs.
I chose this club because I love to sing and dance. The song I love to sing is We Will Jingle.

President votes
Hey guys,
I have been hearing that this year President Obama is running against Mitt Romney so I decided to ask people who they think should be our next president. I even asked Ms.Wilcox. One person changed their mind from Romney to Obama. Okay I know you want to know who won so I'll tell you.
President Obama - 25 votes including Ms.Wilcox and us bloggers
Mitt Romney - zero votes
I guess everyone wanted President Obama to have a second term. Wait that's just only Ms.Wilcox's class.
Who do you want to be president this year?

Clay Busts in Art!!!
In art we are working on really cool clay busts.
We have to show an emotion on the clay heads. It was a hard process but very fun! First we made our head and shoulders. Next we added eyes,ears,nose,and mouth. And by then the clay was not as smooth as the first day, but it was still useful. Lastly we added details on the face such as bow ties, glasses, hair, etc.
Mrs. Dean (our art teacher) will fire them very soon, and we'll be able to paint!
I'm thinking to paint my clay bust colorful! I bet they are going to turn out awesome. Can't wait to see!!!

On Wednesday my class went to P.E. Coach Whaley told us that there is a P.E blog like how we made our 5th grade blog. The blog is mostly stuff we do in P.E like how we write about what we do in 5th grade. Coach also posted pictures of us playing games in P.E.
She wrote about what we are learning in P.E. She posted stuff about how we're learning about overhand throwing.

Night John
Night John is a sad but great book.
The two main characters are Sarny, Night John, and Mammy. Sarny is a little girl. Night John teaches Sarny how to read. They're all slaves.
Their owner Old Waller whips them when he finds out they can read. Back then it was against the law for slaves to know how to read.
Find out more about Night John by reading Night John by Gary Paulsen.

Book Buddies!!!!!!!!!!!
Once a month we go visit our book buddies with Mrs.Dunston's class in pre k.
We get to read with them and as they grow they will read with us! Sometimes it is a little challenging to keep their attention but it is still really fun!
I always LOVE to read picture books once and a while! Sometimes I will pick books that I used to read when I was little, but now when I pick out books for myself I like to pick books that we have been learning about. For my book buddy I think the best ones are from their book shelf because it is a book that they have been learning about!
I always love when it is time to go visit our book buddies!!!

What's Happening in Writing?
In writing 5th grade is doing informational writing. Our topic is "Animals".
Everybody chose a topic.Who would think 5th grade had such big imagination! Somebody chose to research a cockroach! And somebody else researched an octopus!
Our steps were pretty easy. Take notes,draft,edit,and publish.We had the options to make a poster or simply write it on a new piece of paper. Most people chose poster.
We have learned a lot about animals. Did you know wolves can go for days without eating? Or that cockroaches don't have a backbone!?! And that Bird-eating spiders can grow up to the size of a dinner plate! I was pretty surprised at these facts.
Students already started with their poster. They are turning out awesome and colorful! Thanks to all teachers that helped!!!
