Tuesday, 3/10/09 Reported By: Mychae'l

Today we got in and we started logic links. Logic Links are a mind binder our class does for fun. During logic links, we listened to the morning announcement. After everybody finished their logic links, we opened our religion so when we get back from the library we would be ready for it. While we were in the library, our library assistance introduced us to new books, but I just picked out Winnie the Pooh, and Mary Poppins.  After the library, it was almost time for recess because a lot of kids were hungry. When we got back we read pgs: 150-151. We learned about the Second Vatican Congress. It was about Pope John XXIII becoming Pope. We wrote three questions that we would like to ask the Pope. I wrote” is it fun being the Pope? Do you speak English? Where were you born?” Next we went on to Reading. In reading, we read my side of the Mountain. This story was about a boy who moved to the mountains and decided to stay on the side his great grandfather owned.

                  After reading, we did language arts. During language arts, Miss Coy said” You guys are good at contractions.” The whole class was happy to here that. In our workbook we did pg: 35. After language it was recess finally! During recess some of the fifth graders wanted to see who was faster than each other. Sadly recess was over. When we got in, we corrected our math, started our power up, and did our lesson for the day. Lucky we finished our lesson early and got to start and finished our homework and play the fun game of quizmo. The classmates who won quizmo were Kimberley, Sophia, and Asha. After math it was lunch. Nothing happened to us during lunch today.

                  After lunch, it was Social Studies. In social studies we learned about the loyalist, patriotic, and neutral. It also told us about the women of the war. The soldiers named them Molly Pincher because they would carry the heavy pincher. After we did pg: 46 in our workbook, we did our Tuesday Packet. Lucky for me my Tuesday packet was good. Next it was Science; in science we did a review. When everyone was finished, we got to play a game and group three which was: Kelly, Sharmaine, Nina and Sydni. I just said to myself,”It’s not about winning or losing, it’s about having fun.” Sadly it was the end of the day so we packed up and went home. But lucky for Kelly she won the S.L.E.

Today was one of my favorite days at the fifth grade classroom.
