7 W a r r i o r W a y P a g e 8 Hello 2015! We have been getting back into the groove of things after our wonderful Christmas break. It takes a little bit of time to get back into the full swing of things. We have such a short year and so much to get accomplished that we just have to push on through, even though we miss our days of sleeping in. We have a writing test coming up at the end of February. We have been working on writing A LOT! We are getting better with every paper we write. We are expecting that our hard work will pay off. In science we have been studying the solar system. We each had a planet to research. 5 th Grade News We did a report and a planet illustration to share with our classmates. We enjoyed a nice day outside doing a planet scavenger hunt. We found out some pretty cool things about our solar system. We had speech tryouts this past month. We worked feverishly to memorize and present to the judges.. There were six students chosen for the contest February 3 rd. The students that represented Hammon this year at the Five County Speech Contest were Jaxon, Jolie, L.J., Alex, Kaylee, and Jessiah. We have enjoyed playing ballgames, and get thoroughly discouraged when we have to cancel. We have had to learn that things don t always go the way we want it to. We have worked hard to become better, and we would like to show off our skills. We look forward to the rest of our season. We are ready to see what 2015 holds for us. We have made our resolutions and are working to achieve them. If we can make it through February we will be on the downhill slide. We will have one test under our belts by then and will just have to worry about our other four tests. So far, in the 6 th grade we ve had some pretty cool science experiments. There was a lava lamp made in a water bottle and soon we will experiment with a floating disc. We have witnessed some very interesting science experiments and we all get to make our own soon. Maybe we can invent something new, but we will have to wait and see what happens in the year. This season of basketball for 5 th and 6 th grade girls has been fun!
