V.I.P. Riley

    V.I.P.S

This year the teachers decided to end the year with a bang! So that means that every day all three 5th grade classroom will have a V.I.P! The way to be V.I.P is your balloon has to get popt. But for the first V.I.P we just picked a stick for who would pop the first balloon. Are first V.I.P was Macy! So what happens when your V.I.P is you get special treatment like you get to sit where ever you want and you get a poster where your class says what they like about you. Then you take a picture with your poster at the end of the day. I ask Madeline what she thought of the V.I.P.S and she said I was so excited to hear that we get to V.I.P.S! I have really enjoyed the V.I.P.S! I can't wait when I am V.I.P.!

Then we had to watch a video how he got stuck inside the wall. When the video was over it was time to go I was sad we had to go.                           -Riley

So I decided to go get a snack but even the snack line was long and of course no one got behind me. After I got a snack I went on the roller coaster,the ferris wheel, and the salt and pepper shaker. But any ride I went on had a line except one the spinning tea cups. I was like yes ! I was finally the first one in line!

Hoops For Heart By Riley

     Hoops For Heart      

Hoops for heart is very  similar  to jump Rope for heart. What happens is kids come Into P.E. and get into groups. The two kids are rebounding why the other person is shooting! Hoops for heart is a great and fun way to raise money!

A Lot of people like Hoops for heart because it had to do with basketball. Ava said “ I liked that it because I love  basketball”. The money Glenridge raised goes to heart research.  The way we raise money you get a form sent home and you have your parents  fill it out. On the form there is a part that says how much money will you give for each  basket your child makes. So really it depends on how many baskets you make.
