6th Grade

I can't believe I'm going to 6th grade! I'm really glad that I got Mr. Mills. On Friday I had P.E., art, and music. P.E. was with Mr. Mills, art was with Mrs. Earnshaw, and Music was with Mrs. Miller. P.E. was really fun! We played soccer. There was a kid on my team and he doesn't play soccer a lot. In fact, and don't think he ever has. Our team captain assigned him to be the goalie. When a kid kicked the ball to score a goal, our goalie did an awesome move to block it! He used his legs! He didn't kick it. He sort of twisted his legs and caught the ball in the middle. Everyone was cheering! Even some people on the other team! After two games of soccer, we went inside to go to art in Mrs. Earnshaw's room. She handed out pieces of paper and some colored pencils and she explained to us what we were going to do. She said that we were going to draw a tree that has leaves but also put other things on it that we like. I drew a tether ball, a book, an apple, and a doughnut. I think I had another thing on it but I can't remember. After art we went to Mrs. Miller's room and we sang really fun songs! I had Mrs. Miller in fourth grade. But she moved to 6th grade this year. First we sang a song that I don't know how to spell but we were being really silly in it. Then we sang, "An Austrian went Yodeling". That's one of my favorite songs! Then we sang The princess pat which is one of my favorite girl scout songs. Then we sang Boom-chicka-boom. I love that song! And finally we sang, "I'm a little pile of tin". I like that song too! It was a really fun day!

Emily, you are making me excited for school. I haven't been looking forward to it until now. You may have to teach me some of your fun songs. I teach music at Meadowbrook now. I hope you have a fun year 'ruling the school'. Love you!
