9-11 Reflections

9-11 was a sad day for everybody.I learned that the planes that crashed into the towers were hijacked by a group of people who didn’t like America.They tried to bring America down.After the first crash in the World Trade Center people thought it was a accident but when it happened again they knew that was no accident.Soon after the one  attack at the World Trade Center another plane hit the other tower.They immediately stopped sending flights out.Soon after the World Trade Center attacks a plane hit the Pentagon.After the people on flight 93 heard about the attacks they took the plane back from the hijackers,and instead crashed it in Western,Pennsylvania.Where flight 93 had crashed there was a crater,and there were no survivors.That day the definition for ‘heroes’ changed.The people who attacked america where found and punished.Now where the World Trade Centers stood there is a memorial with the names of the people in the building at that time the towers fell.If there is a rose that means it’s that person’s birthday.we should all remember 9-11 to honor all the people that died trying to evacuate.

Life in 5th Grade

For me,so far 5th grade is really fun.So far,the teachers are really nice.We get lots of work done in an hour and learn new things,but it’s really tiring sometimes.As soon as we get to the classroom we start working.Sometimes in the morning in the hallway we get to talk.I really look forward to learning lots of new things in science,reading,math and social studies.In science I hope we get to have cool experiments and projects.What is awesome is that we get much more freedom in 5th grade than we did in 4th grade.Like at lunch and class we get to choose our own seats.In Mrs.Owens and Mr.Mcbride’s we get don’t to choose our own seats,nobody does,unless you have a pass.My favorited class is Mrs.Owens because we get to read a lot,I love to read.I can already tell i’m going to love 5th grade.
