The Boo Bash! by Melissa

This past Saturday was the sixth Boo Bash. A lot of our classmates decided to dress up and join the party. There were some cool costumes from Noha the blood drinking vampire to the gothic Sage, it really was a blast. Well there can’t be a trick without a treat! MILLIONS of cupcakes and cookies were lined up on to the tables. But remember there can’t be a treat without a trick. We went to the Mad Science Lab to touch some ooey gooey body parts. Well, you can’t remember this day without a photo. A pumpkin patch scene was created to make it picture perfect. Don’t forget the party in the MMR where you can hit the dance floor. Remember to go to the fortune teller she can predict you’re going to have a great time!

Team Airborne!!

Fifth Grade's First Trip to the Armory

5^th Grades trip to the Armory

by Jessica

This is the first trip for this years 5^th grade. We went to the Armory. We had to do curl-ups and it really wasn’t much fun for the kids who are not really good at it. Then, we had to do track - two laps should do it! Then we had a little fun playing Team Airborne with the giant beach balls. It was a challenge keeping a giant beach ball in the air, but it was really fun!

First Fridays by Shanthi

Today was our second First Friday. We made up dreams that are like the ones in our read-aloud, the BFG. With the help of our parents we wrote down the dreams down and glued them onto dream jars. The BFG is a story about Sophie, a girl who is snatched out of her bed by a giant. But, she is lucky, because her kidnapper is a good and kind giant. The giant, unlike the others that eat children, blows good dreams to sleeping children, and keeps dreams in glass jars.
