CHOIR CONCERT

Christmas Concert

The fifth grade concert was a pretty big event. The audience was huge comparing to where I was standing. Almost everybody in my class was there. Every fifth grader was reguired to wear green or red to be festive. There were like 8 songs performed. First honor quior sang the Star Spangled Banner. Next they sang songs that they practiced. Then the fifth graders got on the stage and Mrs. Burd and Mrs.Terry's class sang first. After them, it was Mrs. Sims and Liddle's class turn. Finally we ended the concert by singing one song together which was called Belive from The Polar Express. :]-Aneysha.

Colonies

Before Christmas break we worked on three important colonies. These three colonies were the middle colonies, the England colonies, and the southern colonies. Each student got to decide which colonies they wanted to do. The first day of our projects the southern colonies watched a video on their place of living and how it was ran. The other colonies took notes on their colonies until they got to watch their video. Our goal was to make a brochure on our colony for the settelers to see.(the settelers are not real it is just a fun project.) We had two weeks to finish our brochures. We all got to pick a partner to work with that was in our same colony. We finished our reports on time and had a lot if fun making it with our friends. 

Celery Cells

Hi my name is Jaedha and I'm going to talk about the day that we did a celery project! We enjoyed learning more about celery aperently celery has veins and so the class and I put dye in water and left it there for a couple of days and later after it turned a little bit blue we opened it up and looked at the veins it was so cool. The veins were blue so we could see them 😀. That project was amazing I think I'm going to try it at home too! -Jaedha 😝

Secret Santa Book Exchange

We are doing a secret santa! Every "santa" has to give a book away that they have already read and in good condition to there person. It can be any book. "Santa" can not say who they are. That's what makes it fun! The secret santa gives their person clues of who they are. In this case, a simile is using like and as to describe yourself. An alliteration is to describe yourself using the same leter at the begining of a word throughout the sentence. To decribe yourself with a hyperbole, exaggeration something about you. Remember not to put your name on it!-Aneysha

Describe yourself using a simile.
Describe yourself using alliteration.
Describe yourself using hyperbole.
Choose an interesting way to describe yourself.

The Plant Quest

The Plant Quest  

I am writing this to tell you what we did in science.  This post is to tell you more about our scavenger hunt

   The lesson is to teach us about the characteristics of plants to tell us what groups and kinds of plants we learned diffent facts about plants like:

What is the largest type of seed in the world..........coconuts 

What is the largest type of plant in the world that does not have a wooden stem..........a banana tree 

     That is what we learned in science about plants
