Benchmarks and Wedges

Today

Today our class learned about benchmarks in our workbooks. After we finished the math we marked it. After that the class did word sorting with Mrs.Barth and the class did a spelling test. After the class did word sorting we did social studies. In social studies we learned about the fur trading. When social studies was done our class went for guided reading then we went out for recesses. Some kids in our school play two square and others play on the playground. When the bell rings we all go inside. After we came inside we were reading the play how the land of the Blackfoot people came to be. Than after that we go outside for Lunch.After we come in the grade five students from Mrs.Scallon’s come into our classroom to do French. Then the other part of our class goes to St’a’timc with Ms. Mcgillis. In French we had two tests. In science we learned about wedges.

In P.E. we played hit the other side and gladiators. In word sorting we were doing our word hunting. Then we had guided reading for half an hour.

Spring Break!!!

Last week was spring break. We got a week off school. During that time we, Luc: I went to Kamloops for a day, Nick: I went to Kamloops on my dad’s birthday with my dad and bought my brother a PSP (Play Station Portable). We all had fun!!!

During spring break I went to my grandmas in Langley form Friday until Wednesday. Then I came home and stay home for about 20 hours and then my mom, dad and I went to Kelowna from Thursday to Sunday.

It was a very tiring. Now were back in school and after a week off of school everyone is very tired. But everyone is happy to see their friends. Spring break was a blast.

Monday


On Monday it was my first day in Mexico. We caught crabs and
Saw jellyfish. Dylan Harder and me played shuffleboard it was my first
Time ever to play; I was really good at it. The ocean was really cold at
First it took a while to get used to it then it felt nice. The water park
Was really big and there was lots of water slides. I liked the slide with
Bucket, it filled up with water then the water gets dumped on you. For
Dinner we went to the Italian restaurant. I had chicken nuggets and fries
It was pretty good. When Riley and me were on the rocks we saw a
Tarantula. I drank about 10 strawberry dakeries a day. My dad and me
buried Callie and Ashley in the sand. On Monday it was my first day in
Mexico.



Tuesday


On Tuesday we went to swim with the dolphins. Our dolphins’
Name was Poseidon the trainer said he was the best dolphin there. He
Was really friendly, at the water park there were 9 dolphins. The trainer
At the water park said that dolphins in captivity live until 30 to 40 years
Old. At the end of the swim we got goggles and we could listen to them
Speak under water. Before we went in the water we got our picture taken
With a sea lion, he smelled like dead fish. We got to ride on boogie boards
And the dolphins pushed you they felt like rubber it was really cool. The
Dolphins eat tons and tons of fish. We also got to ride on their backs. For
Dinner we went to the Japanese restaurant. On Tuesday we went to swim
With the dolphins.

Spring Break

Spring Break
This is Katelyn and I think we should get at least three weeks off for spring break. There is a reason that might not happen is because we could forget things but I say oh well to that. We could always study for a while at school to refresh our memories when we get back. When we are at home we can do things to improve our marks. For p.e we can practice sports so we can improve our mark. If you go travelling you can learn about the place and the people and wrute about it when you get back.it would be good for our mental health. We can spend more time with our families and get closer to each other. We can spend time with our friends so we aren’t always talking about where we went and who we saw and what we did. Ms.Seed would be the best principal ever if this happened. The Cayoosh Elementary school would be the best school ever. The kids would work harder because they will have time off of working and struggling. I think it would be cool if we got at least three weeks off of school for spring break.

Spring Break

My name is Kevin and I think spring break should be three weeks
long. Some people might say you might forget thing but I don't think
that¡̄s true. If you get a lot of exercise, your P.E mark will be higher. If
you travel you can learn new things from different places. And if you relax
more you'll be ready to learn but there are also many other reasons why we
should have three weeks of spring break and besides my aunt used to be a
teacher. Also I have homework at home too (not from school!!!!). Well anyway
I believe spring break should be three weeks long. Enjoy spring break! I
still wish it would be three weeks long.

Poetry

This morning our class did math problems. After some kids finished math they helped other people. At the end of the period we marked math. In science we learned about levers and fulcrums. We learned that you could move the whole earth. After science we will go to recess and play games outside. We are skipping now that the snow and ice has gone. We play basketball and bouncing balls. We are reading about the Olympics and famous people in guided reading. We are writing poems. On Friday we will pick our favorite poems.

Here is a poem call and acrostic.

After lunch reading tutors went and read with little kids. After that we worked on our homework which is spelling, L.A and math. There is baseball at lunch for people that want to play baseball. When we go outside to play most people play foursquare, skip or do their own stuff. We watched a stop smoking movie
