At 8:20am the teachers let us leave the pavilion To our class and we got to our class so we could hang our backpacks up. Some of my classmates stayed behind in the alleyway when most of us went to morning recess.
When the bell rang we went to our line. While in line I had a conversation with my two friends but we all had to be quiet because our teacher was coming to pick us up and head to class. We all got our supplies out of our backpack and lined up and went inside the class as we greeted our teacher. She told us to get our chromebooks. Our chromebook monitor went and we formed a line to get our chromebooks. When we logged into our chromebooks we did Xtramath and FrontRowed Fluency. When most of us finished our assignments we waited for further instruction. But some people weren’t sure what to do after they finished so they did Prodigy. I asked someone who was doing Prodigy we could play and they just shrugged and said “I Don’t Know”. I waited until mostly everyone was done and when i was just about to ask my teacher if we could do Prodigy we changed subjects.
We started to watching the videos for election for school president, PTSA, Treasurer, etc. After taking notes on school president we got unquestionably tired. Our teacher let us get up and stretch for a while while doing Gonoodle dance party mode. 6 people’s avatars were connected to dance party so we all got to see what their avatar looked like, it was really fun when we all did the double dog dab that exercise i think everyone pretty much liked the best because everyone loves to dab. Moving on after doing Gonoodle we got to take notes on the secretary's video it was wonderful that we had so many people running for different positions.
After we took notes on that our teacher told us we were having a early recess. We lined up at our doorway and left in line arrangement. Me and some of my friends went to breakfast and got ourselves something to eat to replenish our minds after all of that voting. We discussed about if we were going to our friends bday or not. When we finished breakfast we split up and went our separate ways. I found my friends walking alone and i ran over to him. We decided to look for our other friends. We saw them doing work in the back of their classroom and waved for a moment. The bell rang a second later and we ran all the way back to our line. When we got into our classroom we finished up taking notes on the treasurer's video. At around 10:22 the announcer declared that we were going to have the great shakeout drill and we retreated under the tables me and my friends were sitting peacefully under the table until like 5 or more people rushed in we jumped with shock as our used to be peaceful place was more cramped than the inside of Peel P50 It’s a type of car that is super small that a kid could drive it! After the great shakeout was over we finished up taking our notes on PTSA, C.C. and Activity Chair. I was astonished by how everyone’s video was so great!
We got into groups of four for the next activity we were going to do. I t had to be two boys and two girls. It took us a long time because we had to decide as a group because 2 of us wanted to do one topic and the other wanted a different topic. In the end we chose John Henry. This was pretty hard for us because we got off topic easily. Once when we were thinking of a N word to describe him my stomach growled and that triggered words like: “Are You Hungry?”, “What Was That?!” and etc. When we were stuck on one word we the bell for lunch rang and our group groaned. At lunch i sat down next to someone i didn’t know. We were the first table to be excused and we ran to the field. Then we kinda got bored so we leaned over on a wall or something and said “Sup.’’ to whoever passed by. When we ran to our line and got picked up by another teacher for science. We learned about Atoms, molecules and etc. After Science we had to find our chromebooks. We cleaned up the objects we used before lunch. We Got to read the Book Pax Before we went home. This chapter that we read was a cliffhanger because were we left off makes you want to read more so badly!
