My traditions with my family

Have you ever got to do Secret Santa with your family or friends? Well that’s what my family does. We first eat our food and enjoys time together. After that we pick names for Secret Santa and we give out three things that we are interested in. I love decorating our Christmas tree and setting up lights outside our house. Most of the time I listen to Christmas while putting up decorations. I also love baking cookies and peppermint bark.

What about making everything spooky for Halloween? My mom and I go all out on our house and make it really spooky for the kids who trick or treat at our house. One year we even had a haunted house! We hand out candy and we have a annual Halloween party! We decorate for it and make cool dishes for it. We make witches cauldron drink which is a fruit punch drink with fake eyeballs. We also have a contest for who has the scariest,funniest and scariest costume.

Who loves food! Well I know I love to eat as much as I can on Thanksgiving. We eat a lot of turkey and mashed potatoes. Everyone in my family loves to cook so we get filled up on appetizers even before we have the main dish. I love to play games with my family like Clue or Monopoly. We all have a talent show and show off skills. We have multiple pies that we barely eat because we are so full! We have pumpkin pie, Chocolate pie, and Apple pie and so much more.

Helping the Hungry

 

                              My 20% project

For Addison’s and mine PBL project we chose to teach kids at a local school and in return they give us cans to donate Go Pantry.

With that being said I have a lot of mixed emotions through my project. First i’m feeling really exited. I am exited to help kids and make math really fun for them. Also I am exited because we get to give back to the community. I also am feeling very nervous . I am because I feel like we might make a mistake in this journey. I lastly feel very anxious because I just want to get my project started. I just want to go over to a school and teach!

My goals for November:

Addison and I are hoping to get our flyers made for the school to get them notified.We are also hoping to get our other emails sent so we can get this all organized and planed.We are really exited for our project and hopes it works.

Sixth grade life

So you are probably wondering what six graders do in a school day right? Well it starts off in the morning when we do Rosetta Stone. Rosetta Stone is a program that teaches you new languages and how to write, read, and speak that language.  Next we have our four core classes. Each class is about fifty minutes long. We also have PBL, PBL is project based learning class where we basically come up with ideas to help our community .Then we have lunch. We finally get to eat food!  After that we have advisory. Advisory is a period that we get to do all of our homework or ask questions if we don’t understand something. Then we have unified arts, unified arts is a class that we get to do music, P.E,  and art etc. Then its home time. We get out of school at 2:35.

We have about 175 days in our school year, with that said we have about 190 days of free time. We have multiple breaks like spring break, summer break, winter break . Also, at my school we have a lot of extra curricular activities like cheer, volleyball, archery and many others. These sports help to keep kids active. We have class changes, a class change is basically when you have different teachers through out the day. At my school we have seven periods, including a  free period where  most kids like to do there homework /class work.

Just another place

Hello!

So you’ve probably been to places in your country,right? But have you hopped on a plane and flew to another one? Well if you think about it you need a lot to take on trips and to travel.Please check out my Powtoon,I worked really hard on this and it is really cool!  Also check out these links that I have included that talk about traveling also.

Best vacations

Travel list

Well when your on your trip on a plane and your ears pop what do you do? Well when i’m on a plane I usually bring gum so when i’m chewing it my ears don’t pop! I would also bring something comfy to lay on,something to wear,and something to sit on.Have you ever been on a plane and your carry on luggage get in the way? Well my advise is to bring something that will fit under the seat, but don’t bother the people behind you. I would bring things that don’t make you bored.For example like I would bring a coloring book or my phone.This way I will be entertained the whole ride there.

If you are going somewhere that it is hot,it is common sense not to bring winter clothes. Same with if it is cold,don’t bring a tank top and shorts! But when you get to the air port you have to be very patient. Don’t even get me started about security first you have to get scanned and see if you have any harmful things,UGH! I’m just telling you right now airport food is amazing,well in my opinion it is.
