Stuart Little

A note from Mrs. Griffin --
We have been very busy in fifth-grade...so busy we almost forgot to blog. But not quite!

We finished reading Stuart Little, turned in a collection of several assignments from the book and presented oral book reports to the class. After all was said and done, students wrote some quick responses about whether they liked the book, whether they thought the assignments were hard or easy and whether they thought we should do oral book reports again.

It was kind of hard because you had to write two pages for the ending.
I really, really liked the book although it didn't have a nice ending. My favorite part was when Margalo and Stuart meet each other.

Descriptive writing

This week we worked on writing paragraphs with lots of description. We are trying not to read "tired" words. See if these make your mouth water...

From E.Z.
I like a enjoyable food that I want to tell you about it. My favorite food is seveche because I am Mexican and Mexican always eat seveche. But not only I like it because I am Mexican I liked it sence the first day I tasted it. The seveche has cuccumber, tomato, shrimp and onion! When I smell it, it smells so good. Finally I could eat it and I could put chilly on it and I would always say yummy. But then, I say to my mom good job! Now you know what is my favorite food.

From L.B.
Hot wings are my favorite food to eat. They are spicy. Somethime my mouth feels lik a vollckanow. You have to eat yem quick. You can eat as meny as you want. All my family like them, even my mom, dad. Now you now my favorite food.

From J.M.R
Do you have a favorite food, because I do? First, I love tacos. I enjoy them because of the juicy meat and also because of the cheesy cheese. Second, I adore enchiladas. I worship them because of the gooey cheesy stringy cheese. Last, I am fond of the taco salad. I love them because of the doritos in it instead of the crunchy, regular chips, but do you enjoy taco salad? Those are my favorite foods and posibly yours.

We will visit our kindergarten buddies again today. We are practicing a math rap that we will perform for the school at the first assembly!
