The basketballers.

There was a family of twelve that came to our school.They hold 5 world records for basketball.They had two teenagers and 2 two year old twins and they had one 3 year old.
They also had some kids asleep in the bus.They could spinn 4 bashetballs at a time.At the end of the assemly they all rode on 13 foot tall unicicles.
At the end of the asembly they talked about what they did to get that good.They were trying to tell us to never give up.After they were done they gave us all a card of there family.All the 3 year old did was help get all of the stuff set up.I think it was on of the best assemlys we ever had.

Honor Choir

One of the activities we do at school is honor choir.We have so much fun. Mrs.Frisen teaches all of the students in 5th grade that are in honor choir. If we get perfect attendance we get a candy reward. Mrs.Frisen set us all up  into different groups, and every group has a capitan.We sing winter songs, and the concert is in February! We will be going on a tour around norwalk, and we will leave at 8:30am and come back at 2:30pm.So then we will be eating at subway or mcdonalds.Everybody is so excited about honor choir this year!

E-Pals!

   We are doing an e-mail type thing called e-pals. E-pals is like an e-mail account, we will use it to e-mail another class in France! It is very monitored and safe though, so don't worry about it being abused by students. This should be really fun!

Mrs.Nichols Warrior Way Tickets

Every week that we are good and we don't have to sign in we get a giant warrior way ticket. When we get a ticket we can choose a prize from our prize calendar. On the giant ticket we have to write down the date and our name. So if you are good you will get rewarded. The one I like best is the free space. You can choose anything you want. I also like the ping pong bag because you never know what you will get.

Vocab

Every week, our class does something called vocab. That is where we have at least 7 words, and we have to find their definition, part of speech, and use it in a sentence.You can also do it on the i pods and i pads, so that makes it even more fun. Then when your done, you can change the font, the text color. You can even add pictures! It does take a long time but it's very fun.    Levi

Celebrity Readers

On the last Friday of every month the football players and cheerleaders come in and read to all of the classrooms.  The last time they came to Mrs. Nichol's class we had 2 football players, Korey and Kenyon came to our class.  They read 2 books to us, then we played a game.  After that they had to go back to school.
