Math Rocks! Factor Down a Tree

Wheelies

Today at school the patrols went to Wheelies. It was very cool there because it was dark with flashing lights. -Nicolas
I fell a  lot and its hard to rollerskate. -Devon
I fell down a lot but after awhile I got the hang of it. -Abhinav
We had a game that we played called "Pick a Wall". You had to pick a wall either green or orange when the music stopped. Then a person working there goes into the middle a flips a coin. If it was heads the people on orange would win and then they got to skate around and stay in the game. The people on green would have to leave the rink.  The opposite for the other way around-Nicolas, Jocelyn
There was also a boy's only skate and a girl's only skate. -April
There was a canteen and I wish I had money. -Kira
I bought popcorn and Sunny-D to drink -David
I bought glow fingers and then gave them away. -Nicolas
A bunch of us bought glow glasses they were $4.00 but they were worth it. -Kathleen, Hannah, Jocelyn, Abby, Gabby

We had lots of fun at Wheelies and we wish I did not have to leave! 5B

Dairy of a Class

Did you know that in 5B, we earn money?  If we follow expectations, we get money.  It is not real money of course! It is used for our class auction. 

   In 5B we like B's. We have a class Blog. In the blog we talk about what's happening.  Most of us like it!  

  We made Buffalo art using charcoal!  Another B word!  We also had a Bake Sale.  The money we made is going to The Children's Hospital.  We had cupcakes, brownies, cookies, suckers, etc.  

   There are many more exciting happenings in our classroom!

STAY TUNED!!!
