Friday, 3/27/09 Reported By: Brooke


RRRRRiiiinggg! Goes the school bell. All the kids on the playground stop playing and get in their classroom lines. All the teachers come out talking, laughing, or just smiling. The 5th grade teacher, Ms. Jensen was absent, so the 3rd grade teacher Mrs.D, took my class with her class to her classroom.

The 5th grade sat at a bean shaped table and read for 2 minutes. When Mrs. D. said “Put your backpacks near your classroom door”.  Reese found a deck of cards.  Most of the class played card games and some read.  Around 3: 42 my best friends, Asha, and Selena begin talking, I joined in the conversation.  

It was about one of the best substitutes we’ve ever had, Ms. Amanda. Selena had asked who she was.  Asha and I told Selena all about Ms. Amanda. Selena looked up and said “who is she?” While we were talking Ms. Amanda stood at the doorway listing to our conversation! Me and Asha turned around and said at the same time “Its Ms. Amanda”! We sounded like twins. Ms. Amanda told the class to follow her to the classroom.  

When we got inside our classroom we unpacked, got out our reading book, and read the story Girls think of everything.  The story is about inventions we use today that were invented by women. After that we got out our scan tron, privacy folders, paper, and test booklet. Then we took the reading test. Later we took the spelling test. When we finished both test the class worked on a sheet that looked like the cover of the book.

On the sheet you had to make up a name for a book you would write, then color it and on the bottom write what it was about. RRRiiiinnnggg! Snack time!  After snack was math we corrected our math homework, and worked in our workbook. 20 minutes later we went to preview the book fair. We had to take our lunch bags because when we would come out of the book fair it would be lunch. There was a lot of things in there books, toys, and other stuff.

After we were done looking at the book fair it was time to have lunch. When we finished lunch we took our social studies test on the 13 western states and their capitals. After the test we had free time. Later we had Stations of the Cross which is when the school goes to the church to stand. When the altar servers get to a picture someone would go to the microphone and, read about what happens in the picture. When station of the cross was done the class went to the classroom, packed up, and went home.  

Another great day at St. Timothy School.
