Red Sky Theater

On October 30 The Red Sky Theater came to my school and did a performance called "The Raven Steals The Sun" it is based on some aboriginal things. Some parts were funny and some parts were serious in a performance kind of way. It was kind of hard to see because people in front of us were sitting on there knees and kind of hard to hear in some parts because people around us were talking, but for the most part it was a good play. At the end I almost fell over because my foot was asleep. I liked the part when the daughter came out and was singing and she met the beautiful raven. At the end they took questions and it seamed to take a long time even though it was only a couple of minutes.

The Art Museum

On Wednesday Oct 29 my 5/6 00 class went to the Moose Jaw Art Museum. It was overly fun for me because I love art and portraits. The exhibit was on Beverly Tosh, she was painting War Brides (the bride or wife of someone who went to war). We got to see her in a movie and it was kind of sad because it talked about women who married a man who got sent to war and they had to travel a far was away to be with her husband. On the movie it showed actual war brides and it explained that her own mother was a war bride. After done in the exhibit we went to the gallery and we got to do our self portrait. I was glad because I got the exact colour if not close of my skin, hair, eyes, freckles, and surprisingly my lips.

Election

On October 14 my school held an annual election. The votes didn't count as anything but still it's kind of fun. In our school the Conservative won.

Ukuleles

I music class we are learning how to play the ukuleles. I like playing them but sometimes it hurts your fingers only when you hold a cord for a long time. We have learned a few songs but my favorite one we just learned yesterday it is a Holloween song and it's about an old woman who is only skin and bones.

Thanksgiving Dinner

On Friday October 10 2008 our school had a Thanksgiving Dinner. It was a good dinner and I got to eat with my friends Lauran and Mackenzie. I got to take pictures of all the people in the gym for the year book and when the year book teacher said thanks she called me Jaicee my sisters name. My dad asked my to get him a cookie and some iced tea and he had me tracking stuff all over the gym in high heals.

Hip Hop And Music

On Oct. 14 my school had a bunch of work shops. My class did music and hip hop dance, and truthfully I liked the music better than the dance. Not that I didn't enjoy it I just like music better than dance.

Papier Mache

On Oct. 3 all of the grade 5's did papier mache (french) not just grade 5/6 O/O but the other grade 5's too. Grade 6's were biking. After the first recess we started setting things out and getting things ready. We spent a few hours on making it so what happened was, the papier mache dried on our skin and made our skin look wrinkly.

On Wednesday Oct. 8 we panted them. I could not ,for the life of me, figure out what to paint mine as so I took the yellow, blue, red, and black and made a smiley face.

Skeletons

September 29 class 5/6 O/O started making milk carton skeletons. We started by collecting 6 milk jugs each. We made a bunch of bones like the normal bones, like the skull, hips, ribs, arm bones, leg bones, and so on. On October 3 I finished.
