=Daily Reporter= Today was a Monday. On Mondays our job share teacher Mrs. Brown teaches. We started this overcast but getting gradually sunnier day as we normally do, band and orchestra. We, being the 5th graders, have band and orchestra on Mondays and Wednesday while the 6th graders go on Wednesday and Friday. Anyway, I don't know what band did but in orchestra we're working on are next concert in April. We are working hard on a new peace called Fancy Fiddles. After that we went to literature. In literature we are using the junior great books, AKA a group of short stories for kids our age. We studied deeper thinking by deciding in group discussions traits of the characters and why they had them. Then it was straight to science. In science we were studying nuclear power and fission. Most of these generators work by somehow creating steam and using it to turn a great wheel that creates power. Then we had lunch and continued on to math/art. We were working on elaborate fortune teller machines that basically consist of a pie graph and a spinner that are worked by probability. Mine was what dessert shall I have? Then came PE, my favorite specialist. In PE we are doing a basketball unit and we played a small game of basketball. It was fun. Then came second recess, and finally, dismissal.
