I have had a crazy year in 5th grade and it has been fun at times. On the first day of school i was so nervous but my best friend Calie was in my class so I wasn’t as nervous. Then in the middle of the year we started the decades, and we learned about the Vietnam War and World War II. We also learned about JFK’s assassination and how it was similar to Abraham Lincoln’s assassination. Well now its almost the end of the year and i’m going to miss all my friends and my wonderful teachers. I’ve loved fifth grade! Farewell fifth grade!

I liked when Mr. Mcbride showed us the decades and some music they listened to.                 I learned how to become a better person and to be kind to all people.                                            Advice for 4th graders,                                                                                                                                             Well don’t get it trouble,so be a good person and follow your dreams.

• Roll the die to see who goes first, add up what u get
• To start you get 3 beans each
• When you land on a space you can buy or skip
• When you land on a mystery if you roll a 4 or more you get a bean and 3 or less you lose a bean
• When you get to the beanstalk you must have 7 items, if you don’t then you go to ”start” and get 7 items
• Beans- 100=1 beans     200=2 beans and so on

When I made a goal for myself, I wanted to run 888 miles before the school year ended. I ran 8 miles a day, and I did it in 111 days. It was fun each day walking in White Oak. I rode my bike 90 miles as well. I rode my bike for 9 days and 10 miles each day. I had fun outside exploring nature. I rode around Longview exploring new places. I went to stores such as Walmart and Burks. Then I called my mom after I was done, and we went to the zoo to see little baby kangaroos. It was a tiring and exhausting day but it was worth it!

Child labor was when children of young age had to work like the grown ups by shucking oysters or washing clothes and dishes. They got paid very little money for hours of work, they work for 10 hours and only got paid a dimes worth of money.

Our readers theater was about how children worked by shucking oysters and shrimp and clean lint off washing machines and they got a little amount for hours of work. In order to work you have to be 14 or up but some of them are only 7, they hide them while the inspectors come to check on there business.
