Joe and Laura
Room 24, Grade 5
We are just learning how to multiply fractions. We haven’t done anything different. We are going on a field
trip to the Seattle Symphony, only 10 or 12 people. So only fifth graders get to go. We draw names out of
a bag to make it fair. It doesn’t really seem fair because, some people don’t want to go, all they want to do
is get out of class. In social studies we have been reading about most of the presidents. In English we are
doing abbreviations

Room 22, Grade 4
On Friday we went to the play “Pink and Say”. It was really good! After the play we ate at the fountain.
Then we went to the city bus stop. We waited for about an hour. The bus finally came, and the bus was really
crowded.
When the bus dropped us off, the bell had already rung, so the people who rode the bus had to run to catch
their bus!
Margo and Lindsay
Room 16, Grades 1,2,&3
We just went to the puppet theater and saw “Thumbelina”. The show was made out of shadow puppets.
There were about 40 puppets and only one puppeteer! It was really funny. We are also putting on a musical
called “Stone Soup”. We are doing paper mache’ for the pot and the stones, and we are having fun. We
hope you can come on March 29th.

Our class is going on a field trip in April. We are going to see a play called “Pink and Say”. I think it is

Our class is also growing plants. We could either have tomatoes, a small sunflower, or a giant sunflower.
