9-11 Reflections

I learned that 9-11 was a terrible event in history but even though it was tragic U.S Americans did not fall down they stood up against the terrorist. I learned that September 11 was just a normal day,  until flight 11 hit the first tower. I had also learned that 3 other planes crashed, 1 into the pentagon, 1 into a field in Pennsylvania, and the last plane hit the other tower. I still believe 9-11 was a very, very sad day but I’m happy that we rebuilt a tower to show that we won’t let that tragic day get in heads. I think the U.S Americans who lost family and friends did not deserve that. In class I learned that there were tons of First Responders who died and got badly injured while trying to save people. We learned that there were people on the plane that made the plane hit the field in Pennsylvania instead of hitting a famous place in Washington DC. We also read a book about the plane hitting the Pentagon and people saving others. I interviewed my Madre and she told me what she was doing, she said everyone thought it was an accident. Over all I learned that 9-11 was a bad day for us but we overcame it.

Life in 5th Grade

I’m liking fifth grade so far, mostly because of all the new things we get to do compared to 4th grade. One reason is because we have 5 different and we get to a lot of things that we didn’t do in 4th grade. It’s really awesome and one of my favorite things so far is getting sit wherever we want at lunch which is really fun. I’m really looking forward to doing a big project in Mrs.McFall’s class and getting to post a ton of things on our blogs. So far me and my friend Jordan are loving Mr.McBride because he is so FUNNY. Another thing I really like about 5th grade is getting to learn cursive writing. In 5th grade we also get to be the seniors on our campus. Another fun thing is that all the younger kids look up to us as, because we are there models. I am also looking forward to getting to do the reading fair. My main goal for this year is to learn as much as possible so I can pass the star test. I hope this year will be great.
