Hi, I’m Jake this weeks Roving Reporter for Wednesday January thirteenth 2010.  I’m going to tell you what our class did today.

As we entered the classroom we took off our backpacks and jackets. After putting away our stuff we brought out our homework. We than started class by showing last nights homework to Mr. Coley.

First we did  D.M.A which stand for Daily Morning Activities.  They were sentences about Ellis Island. One of the sentences was, Hundreds of thousand pass threw ellis island annualy. It was wrong so we changed it to, Hundreds of thousands passed through Elliss Island annually.

Next came time to check our spelling. The words seemed pretty easy this week, with all the words dropping the Y and adding the letter I. My score was -0 which was pretty good.

After spelling we read the first chapter of The Lion The Witch & The Wardrobe.  Following the first chapter we made a story map about what we just read. From just reading the first chapter I think we will really like it.

Recess was not that fun because of the weather, we had to spent it in the multi- purpose room. We watched a movie that was not very good. I had to sit on the floor the whole recess.

Once recess was done we switched to our math teachers classroom. In my math class we learned about Perimeter and area. We also got caught up on work from before Christmas vacation.

Finally, it was lunch time and I bought lunch instead of bringing because I love the hamburger and chips. This is always a fun time in the day to talk to friends.  We ate in the MPR and afterwards a aid let us go into a teachers room to watch a movie.

Upon returning to class, we did silent reading. I read a book called Hatchet  that’s about a boy who is flying in a airplane. While up in the air the pilot dies and the boy has to land the plane.

The last subject of the day was Science. We learned about the water cycle, sea breeze,  land breeze, and preparation. This was all new to me so it was kind of cool to learn.

As we left for the day I packed my homework, put my backpack on, and ran to my  bike.
