Hey everyone! It’s Kate, and my week 34 was so much fun! Let me get started with Monday. On Monday we started our health week and that was very exciting. And we also are starting to have math 2 times a day…. and I am not very thrilled about that! But on Monday this lady from zumba came and taught us a little zumba! It was so much fun! Next, on Tuesday for our health week a man from the diabetes place came and talked to us about all of the cures for diabetes! That was great getting to hear all of that information! Also on Tuesday we had a Mystery Skype with Illinois! It was so much fun because I had NO CLUE what it was, and they were really nice! Then, on Wednesday WE HAD OUR TRACK MEET!!  I will tell you all about that right now! First, we left the school and gathered on the bus. When we got there I was really nervous even though I have done it in 3rd and 4th grade too, but this time it was REALLY HOT!!! In the track meet I was running in the 100 meter dash! When all of the people that were running in the 100 meter dash met at a orange cone and the girls in my grade looked like that were in middle school! Their legs came up to half of my body! The man called ready set go, and we were off! At the end I came in 3rd place! And finally at the end of the day, they called all of the finals and I got in the finals!! And I came in 5th in the finals! It was fun! I will post the track video on there too!  And then on Thursday for the health day we had yoga and that was so much fun!!!!! Also on Thursday we had ANOTHER Mystery Skype with Texas! They were so nice too!  Lastly, on Friday at our school we had CBM testing and our diabetes walk!! My week 34 was AMAZING and I hope yours was too!

Hey everyone! It’s Kate, and my week 32 was very busy, hard working, and very exciting! Let’s get started with Monday! On Monday our group won the Benchmark Challenge so we got to eat lunch in the classroom! Also on Monday, we lost our softball game by 1 point! We were very sad but we still had fun! Next, on Tuesday we ate in the classroom again and we played Just Dance on the Wii! That was so much fun! Then, on Wednesday after school we had TCAP club and I went to it. And by the way this week was been A LOT of review too because TCAPs are next week! So we had fun doing trivia! Next, on Thursday we had my Soul Singers performance in front of the parents! I had a speaking part so that was very fun! Also on Thursday we started to wrap yarn around the garden because they are growing!!! And lastly on Friday we got to help the 3rd graders with their test taking strategies! And we did our Soul Singers performance today too in front of the school! My week 32 was short but I am very ready for TCAPs!!  By the way i am the one with the blonde hair speaking! Our school watching our performance! This is our garden!

My week 30 was very busy!! As some of you may know, TCAPs are coming up and these weeks we will be doing REVIEW,REVIEW,REVIEW,REVIEW,REVIEW,REVIEW,REVIEW,REVIEW,!!!!  Just to let you know TCAP is a HUGE  test that covers everything that we have learned. It stands for Tennessee Comprehension Assessment Program. All week we have been working very hard on it! Now, let me start with what we did on Monday. On Monday we started to do our review! In centers it seemed different because usually our group with Mr. Haney we do novel studies, but instead we did TCAP review. Next, on Tuesday we of course did review and we found out who made track!! It was really exciting because me and all of my friends made it! I am in the 100 meter and some of my friends are in the relay!! I am so excited about the meet!! Also on Tuesday we used to have a really nice lady come in named Mrs. Kasper but she left. So on Tuesday she came and visited us! It was very good to get to see her again! She is so nice and we missed her so much! Next on Wednesday, after school we have TCAP club! In TCAP club we practice trivia questions to get us ready for TCAPs!! Lastly, on Thursday it was our last day until the weekend! Because we get off of school Friday and Monday because Easter! I am so excited because I have an awesome Easter dress!!! It is a really pretty blue and it ruffles and the waist! I am very happy that we get a four day weekend! And also I forgot to tell you guys this! Last Friday our student teacher, Anna Cate took us to see the movie the Hunger Games!! It was an awesome movie and me and my friends loved it! I hope everyone has an AMAZING Easter!!                                           The Hunger Games!! TRACK!! Easter!!

Hey everyone! It’s Kate, and this week we are on spring break! I am writing this post to tell you where I am right now during spring break. I am in Texas! And most of you are probably wondering why in the world is Kate in Texas, because I am visiting my cousins! On my Mom’s side of the family we have 23 grandchildren, because my Mom has 3 sisters and 1 brother! It is so much fun getting to play and fellowship with all of my family. The oldest grandchild is 26 and the youngest was just born in February!  So, let me tell you what I have done in Texas so far. We arrived in Texas on Saturday night, and we went to the best restaurant in Texas! (That’s my opinion though!) And it is called Little Mexico, I usually get the steak fingers. And my Mom’s sister (Aunt Kristi) and her husband (Uncle Neel) met us there and so did their 3 kids. (Liz, she is the oldest and she is 26. And she just got married last June, and brought her husband Max.) And the middle child James, who is 24 got married 2 years ago and brought his wife Jean. And the youngest child Miller, who is about to turn 21 couldn’t make it, but we got to visit him later on that night. So that was very delicious! And after that we went to visit our other cousins in Texas, which just live about 5 minutes away from my OTHER cousins. And they have 7 children! The oldest is Rebecca who is 13, then Levi who is 11, then Rheanna who is 10, and then Genevieve who is about to turn 6, and next Lilli who is about to turn 4, and next Giedon who is 2, and there newest addition to the family is Zephiniah who was just borned in February. So we went to their house and had a great time with them. And yesterday we just hung out and my Aunt Kristi made a FABULOUS meal after church! And today is my Aunt Kristi’s birthday and we are about to go to luch with her so I better go! I will post another page tomorrow about that! Thanks!

I hope you like our novel studies trailer!
