My 5th grade school year (Part 1)

 As my school year is coming to an end, I am thinking through everything that happened this school year. So many things were different and at the beginning it felt strange and awkward. Thinking back to everything that happened this year, I’m still doubting if it was a good year or not. Of all the events that happened… It’s hard to decide.

First Trimester

The first trimester of my 5th grade school year was probably the worst since we were still getting used to distance learning. This was also the trimester where my grades were the lowest and I was still confused on this whole distance learning format.

The first day of school was probably the smoothest out of the whole trimester since we did not have to do work and we just got introduced to our teachers.  Since we didn’t have work, we weren’t asking questions all day and we just were kind of quiet and confused.

This trimester, we did some fun things such as dress up days and also some drawings projects. Honestly, I don’t remember much since this was months ago.

Second Trimester

This trimester defiantly went smoother since we were used to the format of Google meet and Google classroom more. We started talking and participating more since we knew our teachers more and we weren’t to quirky about it. This trimester, I got the really good grades because I participated and listened more.

During this Trimester, we wrote more fun and creative essays such as us being trapped in a snow globe. We also had some small celebrations for holidays, and connected with other students more. Overall, this Trimester went smoother and better than the first.

One thing I did like about these two trimesters was that we did fun activities, met our teachers and classmates, and got all the work done.

These two trimesters were the most awkward but I still enjoyed everything that we did. The second trimester also held the biggest project of the year. The Wax museum. We had a lot of changes happening but overall these two trimesters were better than I thought they would be.

Ice skating - Michelle Kwan

I did a interesting research about Michelle Kwan. Michelle Kwan was born 1980 in Torrance, California. Her ethic is Chinese and her parents were from Hong Kong. Michelle Kwan started skating at the age of 5 and went to Ice Castle Training Center in Lake Arrowhead in California. She was 18 years old when she went to the Olympics games. Michelle Kwan liked to skate a lot. I think Michelle Kwan has good performance because she is calm and relaxed. I think Kwan is a good ice skater because she made it all the way to the Olympics games. I think i am a good ice skater because i am in Basic 6. I would like to learn how to ice skate like Kwan. I learned some interesting facts about Michelle Kwan and I would like to accomplish something like her.

Chinese New Year

I am going to write about Chinese New Year because my parents come from China and Chinese new year is February 16th. Here are some facts I learned about Chinese New Year. Chinese New Year is also called Lunar New Year. Chinese New Year was created to welcome spring but Chinese New Year does not happen on the same day every year because not all the time the groundhog sees his shadow. There are 12 symbols for the Chinese zodiac. The 12 symbols are Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, rooster, Dog and Pig. The year of 2018 is the year of the Dog. I was born in 2010 and I am a Tiger and my sister was born in 2014 and she is a Horse. Chinese New Year is very important because we welcome a new symbol. A Chinese New Year tradition is putting out fireworks and putting up lanterns. Chinese New Year lasts for about 15 days. This is what me and my family do on Chinese New Year this year. We went to Chinatown and we got toys and we got clothes. The clothes I got was
