Roving Reporter-Orion

Orion #5, 1/11/13

         This is Orion reporting just another great day in room 28. I entered the school campus with a cheery smile and an urge to learn. I rushed over to the handball court to start our morning run. After we finished, we went to the blue dots to stretch for PE. During PE we trained and exercised hard for the upcoming 1 mile run. We did jumping jacks, mountain climbers, back and forth sprints, and side shuffles. After that grueling work, Chaerin led us to the class and let us in. As we unpacked Mrs. Slezinger turned on “Firework”. Once every backpack was carefully put in the closet we had to take a vocabulary test. But before that she told us we were making a project on ethics. Next, we discussed our opinion on ethical topics. Towards the end of our discussion an unidentified buzzing noise started to get on Mrs. Slezinger’s nerves. She had Mrs. Hauser come into the room to try to fix it and she did it. Finally, we started our vocabulary test. Somewhere in the middle of it our teacher had to go set up TGI Fridays in the teacher’s lounge. Mrs. Noel came in to watch us and make sure we were quiet in “quiet zone” on our way to recess. During recess, I played prisoner with Justin, Bonte, and Eliot. Towards the end of recess Justin shouted “ the girls team rules” as he threw Jordan out to win the game. Then the bell rang so we dragged our sweaty bodies into line. Chaerin then led us to the class and let us enter the classroom. For math rotations, the purple group went to “At Your Seat” to do 11-4 in our floppy book. My favorite rotation is Teacher’s Choice because I learn in a smaller group and we get to learn in a fun way. After, the music went off to alert us to get ready for lunch. We were dismissed to line up and Chaerin led us to lunch. I played prisoner with Justin, Eliot and Jake. When we got back to the classroom, Mrs. Slezinger read another awesome chapter of Among The Imposters which was full of emotion. We all went ahhhhh when it was over. After that, we wrote our new vocabulary words in our spirals. Once we finished, Mrs. Gallo’s class came in to learn our new art project based on detailed paintings by Georgia  O’Keeffe. Then, Mrs. Gallo’s class left and we picked a flower and started copying it. Suddenly, the fire alarm went off and it made me jump.  We quietly made our way to the blacktop to listen to our principal. I could barely hear her because of all the noise. We came back to pack up while Demetrius shared his V.I.P pictures. It was another wonderful day in room 28.
