First Week of 5th Grade

My head is down on the table and I’m waiting patiently for someone to put my finger down. At least I hope I get chosen.”Tap!” I got my finger put down. Yay! I thought to myself.”Ok class, thumbs down, heads up, let’s play seven up! If you get picked, stand up,” The teacher said. I stood up waiting and waiting until finally, it was my turn to guess who tapped me. “ Okay, who do you think chose you Lexi?” My teacher asks me. “I choose you,” I point to one of my friends. Yes!!! I got it right!! Now I get to put someone else’s finger down! In this blog post , you will learn about what I liked the first week of school, like 100 index card challenge and heads up seven up. You will also learn what I am looking forward to this school year, like hotdog field day and the ropes course. I can’t wait to tell you more about it!

Two things I enjoyed the first  week were the index card challenge and the heads up seven up. One reason why I like the index card challenge was because You had 100 index cards and you had to make yours the tallest but you only had 15 minutes. That was the challenge. We had groups and what we did for our group is we folded the index card in the middle to be still. It was hard and fun to do because you had to get your index card the highest to win and I like a challenge so it was very fun! Also I really like heads up seven up. There were seven people that stood up and the rest had their heads down. The seven people that are going around the room are going to put their heads down and the people who have their heads down. They put their heads up and the seven people when they are walking around the room will put one person’s thumb down. So not everyone will get their thumbs put down. Only seven people will get picked and then if you get picked you stand up and guess who picked you and if you got it correct the person who picked you will switch places and if you get it wrong you don’t do anything you just sit back down. That is why I really liked it a lot!

Two things that I am looking forward to is the 5th grade hot dog field day and the field trip to the rope course. One reason what I am looking forward to is  hot dog field day because there are teams and your teams are your classes and you get to play all these fun games like kickball relay races and more another reason why i am also looking forward to it is because you can only have field day as a 5th grader so i am really happy about that because now i am a 5th grader and you also get to have hotdogs for lunch and it is going to be super fun! Also another thing i am really looking forward to is the rope course because i love rope courses and challenges because i love having a challenge and going on high and fun stuff like rope courses I could not wait for this because this is also a 5th grade thing and so i have been also waiting for this so i think it is going to be very fun!

Overall, what I liked about the first week of school was heads up seven up and the 100 index card challenge. They were both fun . I also liked sharing my opinion on what I am looking forward to at the end of the year like the ropes course and hot dog field day. What do you like the most a heads up seven up or 100 index card challenge? What do you look forward to the most, rope course or hotdog field? I bet you would like all of them!
