Student Reporter: Peacemakers, Math, & Veteran's Day

Our Student Reporter reports: 

My first favorite thing of the year was getting to be a Peacemaker. A Peacemaker helps out problems and makes sure everyone follows the rules. When there's a problem we go over the set of rules that we have. We make sure the two people in the problem follow them. I thought being a Peacemaker was amazing. It was fun. And I think my two partners felt that way too. I want to try to be a Peacemaker next year too.


My second favorite thing this year was math. Math is my favorite subject in school. I like multiplying, dividing, adding, subtracting, and how to do lattice and standard algorithm. Now we know how to divide a four-digit number by a one-digit number. We learned more about multiplying a double-digit number by another double-digit number. 

My third favorite thing was when we did the Veteran's Assembly and play. My grandpa was a veteran, so that's why I like Veteran's Day. He was in the Navy. And that's why I liked the play we did.

Student Reporter: P.E.

Our Student Reporter reports:


My favorite subject in school is P.E. We did our running test and a push-up and curl-up test. I did 15 or 16 in the running test, and in the curl-up test I got two strikes. So, I did pretty good. In my push-up test I also got two-strikes. My favorite game in P.E. is Capture the Flag, because you get to run around and break people out of jail. Another one of my favorite games is Pin Down, where you throw a ball on a pin and if it falls down, you lose. I like Cool Hoop Tag, too. You kick a hoola-hoop, and if it touches you, then you have to do some exercises like curl-ups, leg lifts, push-ups, and jumping jacks. P.E. is my favorite, actually. It's my favorite special.

Student Reporter: Grand Coulee Dam & NOVA Creativity Fair

Our Student Reporter reports:


I was in NOVA this year, and I did Grand Coulee Dam for the Creativity Fair. I learned that it is 46 stories tall, and that 78 people died while building the dam, but none of them are buried in the concrete.  This year we went to Grand Coulee Dam and we got to go inside of the dam and on top of it. I thought it was really cool. My favorite part was when we got to stand on top of it and look at Lake Roosevelt.

Student Reporter: Field Day & Year Favorites

Our Student Reporter reports:

Today we're having Field Day and we're gonna have to go to stations. We might get wet and it's going to be a lot of fun.

For this year, it was really fun. I was glad to be in this classroom. Some of my favorite things were the Valentine's Party, the pumpkin carving, the Spring Concert, and all the posters that we've made this year. I've learned a lot this year and my classmates have too.
