Here's an explanation of our schedule:

Our daily schedule is fixed for every day, but when we have special programs or field trips. That's when our schedule is off the track. Some of us are not happy when our schedule is out of order. We like being safe and organized.

On Morning meetings, that's fun because we sit in a circle and we talk about things that are good about each other. On Thursdays we watch videos about different colleges to help us dream about a future college we will attend. On Fridays we talk about good things about each other and things that bug us. We also choose the rock star student for the following week.

During Math we lean different things every day. The teacher first shows us what to do and then we do it. We have stations at this time. These are different tables with different activities. We go to Mr. Lepert when we don't understand something.

Our favorite part of the day is Science. We like to do experiments, such as making crystals, mystery powders and ex.

Flooding is the time we all break up in different groups and go to different teachers' classrooms to practice our reading and writing and social studies.

Our favorite time of day is recess, although we do like to learn, but being outside with our friends and playing different games is something special and it's a privilege, because if you don't turn in your homework, you will have to stay in for recess.

During we read books and do reading responses. Sometimes Mr. Lepert reads to us and models how we should read to ourselves.

We love specials! This is when we go to Music, or Art, or Physical Education or the Library/Computers. Every three days we change specials. We do fun things in Art such as painting, sewing and drawing. Some of us do really well in Art and have our art posted in [|Artsonia] and we have art displayed all over the halls. Mr. Andes is the Music teacher. He is funny and with him we do fun games that teach us something about music. In Physical Education we exercises, games, yoga and dance. The Computer lab is where we go to work on our wikis and the teachers' wikis. We also create stries with[| Storybird] and we get to read and research using Capstone Library and [|LION] online Databases. When we go to the library, we pick a book or two to check out.

For writing, we write poems, stories that are fiction and nonfiction. We share our writing with each other when we're finished a special project. Recently, we had a [|Poetry Slam]. It was fun and we got to hear a lot of great poems.

When the day is done, we get our homework and the fruit of the day. We get our backs and coats and get in line to go home. But just as we leave, we give Mr Lepert a high five.

We are proud of a great day.
