Fifth grade

On the morning of my fifth grade graduation, I was chosen by my teacher to read a speech in front of everyone at graduation. Which included the fifth grade classes, faculty and staff, and most importantly, families of the graduates. I immediately felt my stomach turn upside down. Me being the person I was at the time, I have never talked or read about something at such a very large crowd or event. Also with being in my teacher's class, I was very shy and wouldn't really talk with anyone. So figuring

On the first day of the second year of fifth grade. It was horrible everyone new people from when they were in fourth grade . I felt all alone in a corner. I knew no one ,then the teacher comes up . She said " Hi I will be your teacher this year". I said " Hi I will be one of your students this year". After that, I tried going up to say hi but I was to scared . So I stayed to myself . This girl named Ricquel said " HI I am one of your classmates ". I asked if she wanted to be my friend. she said

something I value due to the fact that we are a grade driven society. When writing, I write to the guidelines in order to receive points for the requested criteria. The reason being, I gave up on expressing my own ideas because I had been shut down by so many teachers throughout my education. I tried to write down what came to my mind and put my own twist on things, but that was not the “right” way to write papers. In order to make both my teachers and my grades happy, I wrote what they wanted to hear,

the many cubic zirconia named Jasmine Frazier. Jasmine and I became acquainted with each other when we were in the fourth grade. She was the funniest, caring, and most protective person I have ever meet and these three traits were what made her a friend like no other. First, Jasmine was my rather adorable, brown-skinned, curly haired best friend since we were in the fourth grade. She was 5'3, one year older than me, always wore a smile that would linger in one's eyes after just one glance, and had

I have wanted to be in NJHS since fifth grade, and have been working towards it with my community service and grades ever since then. I want to be in NJHS because I want to make a difference in our school and community. Also I want my voice to be heard in our school. I want to share my input about all of the ways we can improve

present. When I was in the fourth grade I despised playing basketball during my physical education class so much that I would instead run around the gym while my classmates played basketball. I often would receive a piece of candy for choosing to run instead of play basketball which was another incentive to continue running in addition to my passion for it. When I began to attend L. F. Addington middle school, P.E. was more advanced than it had been in the fourth grade and required running on a daily

Everyone has struggled with something in life, and I always had a struggle with mathematics. When I used to live in Illinois I didn't really struggle a lot in math till I got into the fourth grade. I was in a class with fourth and fifth graders, we would always do assignments and take tests and I always made bad grades on it. It always took me a while to understand things and I wasn't engaged in math so I always got distracted. Also i thought about other things that were not related to the teachers lessons

named Amelia. From kindergarten to 6th grade, we were good friends. Then, everything seemed to fall apart. Now, she seems to almost despise me for reasons that I do not know and hope to find out. Well from kindergarten to the end of third grade I was at St. Bridget’s in Watervliet. Then, from fourth grade to the first three weeks of sixth grade I was at St. Ambrose. Most of my friends from St. Bridget’s went to St. Ambrose after St. Bridget’s closed in third grade; so, I didn’t really need to make a

As a reader, I am someone who enjoys books that have a meaning or are entertaining. I have noticed I am very picky with the types of books that draw my interest. I look for books that appear to be worn or have an interesting cover or title. I read to be able to understand what is going on within the text. I don’t like speed-reading (even when necessary) because I do not feel as though I am picking up on some information. As a reader, I have always enjoyed reading. It is something I have always loved

anything? The kid that was in just one extracurricular and a lame one at that. Well, that was me until fifth grade. I joined girl scouts when I was in kindergarten. I enjoyed it and made new friends, but suddenly, our leaders kept leaving. We got new leaders yearly until Katie's mom decided to stick with us. I had been liking it so far, but then in fifth grade, everything changed. When I was in fifth grade, I wasn’t really friends with anyone. The only people I knew was this guy I PREVIOUSLY had a crush
