                  Promptly at 8:00 this morning the bell rang and Ms. Jensen took us inside.  Once in the classroom, Ms. Jensen announced that today would be different.  Instead of having math after snack it would be earlier.  From there we started to unpack.  Next, we started religion.  In religion we did a page in our workbook with our group.  The assignment was to take parts in the play and read it aloud.  On the following page we wrote about two things good that we did and one thing to do.  When I finished I was instructed to read and start to write to my pen pal in Arizona.  Like I said earlier, math was going to be early.  So at 8:30am we started to correct our math homework and pre-test.  We were interrupted by our school secretary, Ms. Lorraine, for our yearly hearing check-up.  I returned at 9am from the test and soon after I started our math test.  We were allowed about 45 minutes to take the test, but I used about half an hour to do the test and check over it.  After I finished there was an after-test worksheet I had to complete.  The instructions were to reduce the fraction to the lowest terms.  Once we finished it was finally time for snack. 

                  After snack was over “Good Touch, Bad Touch” was continued.  It took so much time that lunch was right after.  My lunch consisted of a turkey and lettuce sandwich with mayonnaise on white bread.  I also had a juicy orange and fruit roll.  String cheese and a Chewy bar were also in my lunch.  To finish I had a refreshing Capri Sun fruit punch flavor.  Rather than playing on the yard Kimberly and I read a book.  Soon after the bell rings and it was time to go inside back to the classroom.

                  Before going in we are all instructed to wash our hands because we have technology next.  During technology the assignment was to copy and paste five paragraphs on Martin Luther King, Jr. from five different websites.  I am the last to finish this assignment.  By then it was 2 o’clock only an hour left of school!  During the last hour our group participated in a science experiment.  The goal was to separate the molecules in water by using water, baking soda, an index card, two pencils sharpened on both ends, wires and a 9 volt battery.  To conduct the experiment our group had to pour the baking soda into the water attach both wires on the terminals and connect one wire to each pencil.  Then we had to poke pencil size holes into the index card and balance it on the cup of water.  The electricity flowing made bubbles appear from the graphite of the pencils.  Our group had the best bubbles.  The five minute bell rang, it was time to pack up and go home.  It was another fun day at St. Timothy’s school.
