Over Christmas break I'm going to try to read the whole Hunger Games Mockingjay. I've read both the 1st and 2nd books already so far. They were really good books and I can't wait to read the 3rd book. Anyways the book Mr. Hummel is reading to us is Wonder, it's a lot like Mask, the movie. Well it's a really good book about a boy that wants to go to school, doesn't know how it's going to go.

Today in science we learned about volume and a tiny bit about ratios. We haven't  really talked about ratios very much so I don't really have to much of an idea what ratios are, but I'm sure I will learn more about them as the year goes on. Right now I am reading the Hunger Games.(Catching Fire; book 2) So far I am in the middle of the book so and nothing really happened so far, but its pretty good.

The Watsons book

We just started a new book about a family named the Watsons that are going to Birmingham, Michigan in 1963, one of the darkest times in America's past. I'm really starting to like the book because of how the characters act and how they are treated by others and how they react to the situation. It's fun to watch how they try to get along with each other.

Thankgiving

                                                                       Thanksgiving
  For Thanksgiving we always go to my grandma's house to eat super and play with all of my cousin's and the rest of my family. I'm thankful for all of my family and friends, my house, food, and good health.

  We always play games, but for some reason my cousin's and I always end wrestling and my grandpa has to always has to break us up before dinner is ready.

Math

In the new unit in math we are practicing mixed numbers, fractions, and equivalent fractions. We just finished unit 4 in math. We have just been everywhere in math, like some people are way ahead of other people and some are a little behind.

Science is getting a little harder because we are trying to separate gravel, dichotomous earth, and salt. We can only use the things that we have already used this unit in science.

We have started a new unit in science about filtering different kinds of  gravels and salt and stuff like that. We didn't really do anything with the land forms kit so I couldn't wright about anything. We've been filtering different kinds of rocks and minerals and decomposed bones. We haven't really done anything because we just started.

This morning was Jam The Van and we won with 111 items so that means........ PIZZA PARTY!!! All the items go strait to the Cascade Food Pantry. We get Happy Joe's and Casey' s pizza.

My Hero

Eli Green is my hero because I’ve known him since I was 3 years old and he is also my best friend so I look up to him.

            Eli always sticks up for himself and sticks up for people that are too shy and people that can’t stick up for themselves. When we were young he used to stick up for me because I didn’t like to talk as much, so he talked up for me.

            Eli is always brave because he always likes to try new things. He likes to climb trees, catch critters, and loves to just walk around in the woods looking for new things.

            When Eli sees someone felling down he tries to cheer them up but, maybe they don’t need cheering up but, he likes to do it anyway. Sometimes he uses jokes to cheer people up. Most of the time they work but, sometimes they don’t.

            Eli and I do everything together from baseball games to going to the movies. If we are on separate teams for sports or something else, we get really competitive. We’ve been in the same class sense P-K and haven’t been in different classes, yet. Eli haven’t been apart very much and I don’t plan on starting very soon.

In science we are talking about how mountains are formed. We just started a little bit ago so we haven't done very much but, we have put a foam mountain together and traced them.

This week is fire prevention week. The fire dep. came to our school and we got to see all their equipment and they let us try on the gear that they use in fires. We got to try to put out a fire ( but it was only a simulator though.) with water.

   Science is awesome this year we are making a model of our school. Right now we are making the base of our school and the fun part is that we need to make it from a birds eye view.
