School. What first comes to mind when you hear the word school? Some people think of reading, math, and homework while others think of lunch, recess, and gym. But to me, I think most people think of just straight terror!
Starting the day after filling out the lunch order, we had science.
Starting shotgun in our order today, everyone filled out the lunch
form and we headed off to science.
With science starting first today, we had a guest teacher. First,
Mrs. Marschman handed out these large pieces of paper, and then she
explained to us that we could either write a story about a day in
the life of a dinosaur, or we could color our dinosaur. I say that
more than half the school chose to color first. After an hour of
drawing dinosaurs and writing about dinosaurs, the bell rang and we
headed off to reading.
With reading coming second after science, you could say that all we
did was work on our school vodcast. As you see there wasn’t much in
reading.
In spelling and sign language class, all we had for an assignment
was page 42 in our workbook, but then we worked on Halloween
signs.
With lunch, the tastiest subject of the day, we had meat loaf. Once
we got outside, due to people talking, we had to stand in lines for
5 minutes. After that we played football.
In math we had a slightly large assignment, which was page 86-88,
#1-40 all and #48-53 all.
After math we headed off to P.E., where we started Jump Rope For
Heart. For the people that don’t know, Jump Rope For Heart is where
we jump rope as much as we can, and we go out and raise money for
research for diseases.
In social studies, we watched more of the movie “The Prince of
Egypt.” It is about Moses leading the Hebrews out of Egypt.
After writing and band or study hall, and since the bell was off
time, we waited until it was 3:25, and then we started marching out
of the door to line up. After that the day was history.
So as you see, there still may be old things you think about when
you hear the word school. There may be some new ones. but of course
I don’t make the decisions for you. Remember school no matter what
because it will be the most important thingAll I have to say is…get
out there, have fun, and learn!
