When we did an activity on taxes, it visualized what was going on in the 1700’s. Every time the king said something the colonists had they had to pay a certain amount of money (or green mints). I learned that it was not fair for the colonists to pay money because they had something. It is very unfair to have to do something like that and not get to choose to pay or not.

My Favorite 2014 Memory

When I look back on the marvelous year of 2014, I remember when I first signed up for Michelle’s All Stars Competition, in a big wide gym on White Oak Road. When I signed up I knew it was going to take lots of work and effort, so I practiced right away!

My 2015 Goal

In this glorious New Year of 2015, I would love to go to Nationals with my All Star twirling team this May! We practice only once a week so my team and I can get our routine down, that means we have to work hard and give effort. If we keep up the great and amazing work we have an amazing chance of bringing home the gold!

Life in 5th grade is different than 4th grade and 3rd grade. In 3rd grade we were the babies again 4th grade was the middle kids and now in 5th grade we are the oldest we are the seniors! Every morning  I get a great feeling because I know that I am the one of the oldest kids in the entire school, I love waking up to that every morning when I get ready for school.
