Student Activities at McClave

Research, time, patience, teamwork, thought and having fun. This is what comes to my mind when I think of the activities at school. 

   It all started in the library at McClave. One of my friends was surrounded by whispering girls. What was going on? I went and asked. But first I waited and eavesdropped on the conversation.  Ghosts? 

I went to them and asked "what are you doing?"  

They told me that they was going to solve a case. That there was something eerie in the girls (and boy's I heard over lunch) bathrooms. All I knew was that it was scary. Sounds and heavy footsteps was heard there. I even experienced it.

   I joined and now I am doing research on books and the Internet. Writing facts and joining in on conversation with my fellow 'ghost hunters' . Fun so far (also kind of freaky)  My hand alreay hurts and my brain is filling with tons of thoughts. Know anything about ghosts?

Please leave info for me and my classmates.  :)

School Year

        The new school year has started at McClave school district and I have learned a tremendous amount of  knowledge. This school has the basics- math, reading, writing etc. But unlike Las Animas it has classroom social studies and a room  full of science tools.

        Mrs.  Taque, our music teacher has ordered us musical instruments named recorders. We have been using our instruments in "band" class. We have been notified that these instruments have a wonderful sound and are perfect for young musical players. We just hope that our hard work will pay off for the planned concert in Winter.

At McClave there are student activities that require Student Counsel Reps. This year 4th grade had 7 people that wanted to be in this program. But only 2 people got elected (per class). I ran but lost by 2 votes. Oh well next two quarters. 

Wish me good luck at my new school!

         

Summer Days!

Man are summer days hot! So here are some ideas on what to do on a scorching day.

Everbody's first thought is lets get wet....  who says no? You can set up a sprinkler and race around it or you can lay about on a trampoline or towel and be lightly showered with cool water.   Or ditch the sprinkler and have some splashing fun at the pool. Just don't stop at wet, jump in and get scorched!   Or even try a Slip'N'slide. Have fun this summer! Stay cool!!:)
