ANAIYA'S E.L.T. PROJECT
For my E.L.T project I'm doing a project on making a new country. The country's name is Emosewa which is awesome backwards.
We decided that the ruler will be a king and queen. I wanted to have babies for an army with candy and sippy cups for weapons.
Our country will be in the middle of the ocean. I also wanted our country to be under the ocean or in the air but we have to have a realistic country.
We are also still researching different government. The way we are going to build the country 3 D which is going to be cool.
Cassius--Social Studies Research Project
In social studies we are studying the Civil War. Now we need to write an informational text about a Civil War figure.
To prevent everyone wanting the same person we had to close our eyes and pick from a plastic bag. If you didn't want the person you got you had one minute to trade with people.
I got the best I could but I still really don't like the person I got. His name is Robert E. Lee. One reason I don't like him is because he made some bad choices like joining the Confederate Army. He also turned down being the lead of the Union Army.
The writing assignment is really stressful and kinda boring. Especially with the person I'm studying. :(

Ada- Author visit
Have you ever met a famous author? Well when the 5th and 4th graders got to meet one we were all very excited. Her name was Gennifer Choldenko. She told us all about her amazing books and how she got the ideas for them. She also told us stories about Alcatraz and the prisoners that lived on Alcatraz. And she told us how she got the information about Alcatraz. We learned lots of things like Machine Gun Kelly's real name was George and his wife made him do those bad things. It was so fun learning about her and how she got ideas for books and I wish she could come again.

Ietta - Our 3rd,4th,and 5th grade Musical
I am so excited the musical! I don't know who I would like to audition for. My favorite part of the musical is SINGING. This year the songs and script is are TOO, happy. Most of my friends are really excited as much as I am. The musical is called Happy the High Tech Snowman.
It's pretty basic , kids make snowman. Then, the snowman some how (impossibly) comes to life. Happy, (the snowman) wants to learn about technology. The kids teach him about technology and one of the kids makes a video of Happy and puts the video on the internet. Scientists and Reporters wanted to put Happy in a freezer. The kids knew the reporters and scientists were coming ,so they did a snowman flash mob so the reporters and scientists did know which one was Happy.You know the same old thing there was a happy ending.
We have been practicing the songs and even though the play is so silly I still want to do it.

Anaiya-Author Visit
An author came to visit us to Chase Street School! It was so cool to listen to what she had to say about her book. One of my questions I had for her was have she ever been to Alcatraz island. She has other books named Al Capone Does my Homework and Al Capone Shines my Shoes. I saw some very cool pictures and heard some very interesting stories.The author's name is Gennifer Choldenko and I thought she was very nice and sweet and I'm very happy that she wrote those stories!:)

Circus Smirkus camp by:Cassius T.
Circus Smirkus camp is a sleep away circus
camp in Vermont. I think they have recently bought a permanent place to set up the dormitories.They teach juggling acrobatics aerials etc. Usually they rent a boarding school
so they can have the dorms. The boarding school I stayed at was in the mountains and the view was amazing. In the distance there were wind turbines and ski lifts. Vermont is really cool looking. ;D
