Terrific Tuesday!!!!!!!!

        We are going to make up a story and have students make up different parts to create a wacky and crazy story! i ask you to let your creativity fly to create the weirdest story!!!!!!!!!

         My eyes fluttered open and a whole new world was in front of me! I screamed and it echoed everywhere.  What had happened ? Last night I was in my bedroom but now I was on a planet, some planet I didn't know! I knew what I had to do.
        First I leaped in the air like they did on the news when someone goes to the moon but I fell to the ground with a THUD! So I just walked really fast really really fast. So the first thing I wanted to do was find an alien to be friends with. I found an alien eating chicken nuggets. They were shaped like dinosaurs. He looked like a cross between a peacock and a giraffe on roller skates. 
        I walked up to him and said " Hello I come in peace please don't hurt me! I have woken up on your planet that makes me run really fast and I have found an alien that is pea-giraffe and I need a friend to help me survive so will you help me?" 
         The giraffe peacock answered " Yes and I have a name it is Tiffany-Smallz and my last name is Featherylongneck. The long necked spotted peacock of outer space. 
          " Please help yourself to a dinonugget and sit down what shall we do?" 
           "Well" I  replied, " I've always wanted to do space laser tag!"
           Tiffany suited up in an awesome piece of purple armor and grabbed a real laser gun to fight me with. It looked like a scene out of a movie. Yet there was me scrawny legs and arms. I tried to copy what she did but I ended up looking like fool in my armor.
             " Ready. Set. Go!" Something smacked into my gut. I flew It knocked me onto another planet. "Sorry your not ready for that you don't have space legs." He turned off his rollar skates that had flown him over here. "Why don't we try to get you home."
               We started walking or should I say fly. We weren't able to touch the ground. Our toes dangled in the air. Yet when your levitating you still walk on air . I started to chill. This planet was freezing. I looked up and saw a glacier towering above me.
                A crack surged through the air. 
            "What was that?" 
            No reply came. The only reply that came was a glacier crashing down on our head. Luckily a hole in the glacier saved us. "Oh no! Wait don't you have rollar skates with rocket boosters?"We blasted out of there and I sat up.
         IT WAS ALL A DREAM!

Class Interview!

                                  BREAKING NEWS!

        We went around the class asking random questions to random people so you can see into your classmates head. For an example we could ask Phillip Jonney Bob, "If you could make ONE ice cream flavor what would it be?"
         First we headed over to Nathan and asked " If your life was turned into a movie who would you choose to play you?" He didn't hesitate for a second to say Adam Sandler. 
          Next we skipped over to Grace Harris and asked " If you could change your name what would it be?" Thankfully she couldn't think of a better name! 
       Meanwhile vocab was starting and we had to write more and more and more! We thought what if a robot was invented to write whatever we think so we slid over to Isabela to get her ideas and she said to make it look like Bay Max so we also asked Aaron and obviously he said do his homework so we got some help and asked Elizabeth Lucas if she would design such a thing SHE agreed that if she did it would have other purposes as well. 
       Moving on we took our hurting writing hands and walked on over to Andrew Meade  and asked " If a sandwich was named after you what would be on it?" Well I mean who doesn't like bacon so he went with a bacon and cheese sandwich because it's bacon!!!!! DING DING DING best sandwich of the year goes to the Andrew! 
        Speaking of food our stomachs started to rumble. We thought Popcorn comes from corn and is therefore a vegetable. Another example is chocolate comes from cocoa beans right?? Soooo chocolate is a lettuce. So we took our snack over to Samantha and munched on it over there while we asked " What is your least favorite vegetable?" She quickly replied with brussel  sprouts followed with a long BLEH! 
        Finally our stomachs started to hurt and we stopped eating and we wondered well most people lay down on the couch sipping a Sprite and watching their favorite movie while their mom waits on them hand and foot but who has the weirdest habit of what they do when their sick. It took three people before we found someone who said something other than throw up. It was Molly Pratt.
         She stands on her head but she doesn't do it for the fun of it. There's a whole science behind it. The blood rushes to her head and makes her head warm and she does this in front of an air vent so the cold air can tickle her toes. At the same time she watches the t.v. It must be pretty hard to blow chunks while upside down. 
          That was gross so we decided to change the topic. going back up to Grace Harris wouldn't change her name we decided to ask Grant what is the weirdest name he's heard?  He said Nut (nu~ette) Then next to him Abby was begging to be asked a question so I asked What is the weirdest nickname you've ever given someone and with out hesitation she said she and Molly Pratt gave Molly Moore the nickname Sugamix! (It has a song too) Sorry I am out of

Advice from Kayla- Former sass of the class

Hello NEW 5th graders! Mrs. Thomas teaches Reading, Language Arts, and Math. In Reading, you will have different projects to choose from and learn about different genres of reading such as Science Fiction. You will also have a long test after you learn a topic within the subject so be prepared, but it's okay, it's just so Mrs. Thomas can gauge your understanding and assess what you have learned about the content we've covered in the unit.  Language Arts is actually more fun than you think it will be...not just writing, writing and more writing!  You also choose from many projects and writing topics and you get to write memoirs and your young authors stories too. More and more projects come along when you get into Math. Can you tell she is into hands-on learning and bringing it to life to make it fun for you?!?  I mean, we ARE in 5th grade afterall...shouldn't we learn AND have some fun too?!?  It's learning on our level- real, relevant, awesome :) Another thing worth knowing is that you will often get to watch verrrrry short videos at the beginning of class (during what Mrs. Thomas calls the "engage" time) on how to do things in math (like a silly song, a rap, a dance, or crazy tune) and you may even get to construct a project called Geometro-City.  
     Most importantly, however, you will need to study VERY hard because there are lots of tests in 5th grade in general and with Mrs. Thomas as well! (Be prepared) For Religion, Science, and Social Studies, you switch over to Mrs. Schleg's room. I've heard some of you are a little scared about the switching classrooms. Let me just tell you there's absolutely nothing to be afraid about! You will be absolutely fine! 

     Now, let's focus on Mrs. Thomas... She is the best teacher ever and she might even give you a nickname! Also, if you get joked on or she teases with you, don't take it offensively, it actually means she likes you and feels comfortable in your relationship that she CAN do that with you.  Take it as a compliment :)  If you're getting offended it's probably something really funny, but if  it's not to you, you can most definitely always talk to her and say you didn't appreciate it and she will completely understand! She is very approachable and cares about your feelings first and foremost.  On an extremely light note and as just a tip, if she hears, "Don't Stop Believin'" on Pandora, she may or may not get on her chair and start dancing! It was pretty hilarious last year when she did it at 6 months pregnant! BUT, if she's not feeling it that day, don't sing and don't take it to heart, she'll feel it again another day, I promise! Also, if "mean Mrs. Thomas" comes out don't ever take it to heart- you probably WERE being too loud or were out of line, because she gives plenty of chances.  Don't think she's doing it to be mean, she's just being teacher! She will also have a list of your names, so if you're talking during class she might give you a warning or a check by your name. You will also have a praise note box where you can write a praise letter to someone and then on Fridays or during class meetings, she will read them aloud and then hang them on the wall as you build a year long praise wall!  It's pretty cool and who doesn't love hearing a nice shout-out about themself?!?  I wish you all the best of luck in 5th grade and have fun!  Trust me, YOU WILL.
