Rinnng!  The school bell rings at 8:00am, all the children rush to their backpacks and the teachers come out with coffee in their hand.  Me and my class go upstairs to our classroom and do the morning work.  The day started with our religion book. We had to write a skit about being dishonest.  I wrote a skit about a boy and girl who were fighting about a $5.00 bill.  When everybody was done with religion, Ms. Jensen moved the class into different spots, 2 each, I sat next to Reese.  Then the class did the reading and vocabulary test.  After the test, some people had to finish their pen pal letters.  Our pen pals are from Arizona and Florida.  Then the bell rang for snack time. 

After snack we went to the new library. And the librarians gave us cookies to munch on while we read some books.  The library was a nice little cozy place, I thought it was wonderful.  Then Ms. Jensen said, “Time to go class”. We walked all the way back to school.  As soon as we got back inside, we did our math.  We had 2 lessons for homework, even and odd number problems.  When we were done with math, we did Social Studies. We had to work with the person next to us, and guess who I had to work with?  Reese!    We had to read together and work on our social studies workbook.

Next, Ms. Jensen had this game where we wrote our name really big on a piece of blank paper.  We crumbled them up and had a snowball fight. The snowballs were actually the paper.  Ms. Jensen told us to stop, and if you had 2 pieces of paper, “drop one”.  Once everyone had one, we realize d Ms. Jensen did not have a piece of paper.  We searched for it, but it was not found. Then the bell rang for lunch.  Afterwards we found Ms. Jensen with a crumbled piece of paper on her desk. 

She opened the piece of paper and it had Kimberly on it.  She said that we each had to say something nice about the person on our piece of paper.  We went around the classroom opening our pieces of paper and I had Nona.  I said “Nona is a good friend”.  Afterwards, Ms. Jensen let us watch the rest of our movie, Planet Earth.  She had the whole series.  After we finished the first series, she put in the second.  While the movie was going, the bank was opened.  Some of the class deposited their cash in the bank.  I deposited $150 and got $25 back.  When the movie was finished, we did science, and the bank closed. 

Next, we read a lesson and did a work page for science.  While everyone was writing homework in their agenda.  Erwan was cleaning the mouse cage, her name is “Brownie”.  After Erwan cleaned Brownies’ cage, he put her back into the cage.  Then we wiped down our desk, packed up our stuff, and left to go home.  That is what I call a fun day!
