5th Grade By Crystal Qin

5th Grade
                   This year at Portal is my last but I'm still very excited to start the first trimester. I hope I will have a lot of fun. Last year I saw that the fifth graders got to do a lot of things that we fourth graders did not get to do like Biz World and if you fourth graders don't know what that is it has something to do with bracelets. But it is also hard too you get harder math also. Last year we didn't get to go to Outdoor school but this year we finally get to go. Also if your in Band and you went last year 5th graders you get to go to great America. Last of all there is the 5th grade Ceremony on the Last day of school.Also if your guessing how I know this I know a fifth grader at my house and her name is Olivia. I will really miss Portal when I leave but I also am excited for middle school.

Comment: 5th graders are you excited for the year? and for the fourth graders are you looking forward to fifth grade?

I am looking forward to this school year. Even though fifth graders have more homework, and responsibilities, the school year is still fun. I am looking forward to Biz World so we can make bracelets! Last year, the fifth graders( now sixth graders) were talking about how fun Outdoor School was. My sister says it's fun too! It'll be interesting to be in the graduation ceremony. This year will be great!!!

Great Post Crystal

Dear Crystal,
I have learned many new things from your blog. I did not now that there was Biz World, and even if I did know what Biz World is I would think it's something to do with the world. I also learned that there is Rockhopper graduation day (I would like to know if fourth graders can come too. I already knew that there is harder maths, but it's not hard if you practice more and do harder worksheets at home and school. I also already knew that if your a fifth grader and your in band then you get to go to different places like the mall "Great America" as you mentioned and many other places. I hope you have a great school year.
Sincerely,
Wasi Alam

Dear Crystal,
I am sad that you are leaving this year but I am also very happy that you had a fun time in rockhopper. I am happy for you that you get to do things that you didn't get to do last year. Also you get to do outdoor school! The special ceremony is going to be fun, no doubt about that! I hope that you have the best year ever!

Crystal-

Fifth grade must be a fun year. Right now I'm looking forward to fourth grade, but after the last day of school I will be looking forward to fifth grade. I am excited to go to outdoor school too. From your post, I think there are a lot of things about 4/5 everyone should be looking forward to. The only bad part about it is that when you are in fourth grade, some of your friends graduate to middle school, and in fifth grade you yourself graduate to middle school and you have to leave almost everyone. Middle school is probably exciting too, because you get to meet a lot of new people and you can still get together with your old friends as well. By the way, I really like your post.

Hi Crystal!

:D I know it's been tought last year that our best 5th grade friends were going off to middle school and this year is our turn. Cute picture by the way! I am very excited for the school year but it's just hard you know...it's going to have much more homework test 5TH GRADERS HAVE PLACEMENT TEST (STUDIED FOR LIKE 2 HOURS A DAY JUST FOR GETTING INTO PRE-ALGEBRA). Oh well. I like Biz-world and I also like the play (I think it's vacation on mars) and It's just going to be a great great year.

Nice post!

Dear Crystal,

I cannot wait to see you fifth graders do Biz World,go to Outdoor School, or go to Great America.I also cannot wait until I get to do those cool things,:) plus get harder homework. I am looking toward fifth grade to get harder things and learn new things.
Sincerely,
Yvonne

Caroline said...

Your blog was great! In your paragraphs you tell me a lot of interesting and informative facts about 5th grade. Is the Biz World about friendship bracelets and what is Outdoor school?
To answer your question, I am really looking forward to 5th grade.

Jasmine said...

I'm really excited about 5th grade, I can't wait to learn 5th grade math with Mrs.Mcpheeters and be a role model tho the other students.

Nice post Crystal!

Oh boy, I wish we do Biz World this year. When the fifth grader did it, it looked like fun. Oops, I got off topic. Yeah, I'm excited about fifth grade, and kinda not. It means we need to do extra work, behave better, be a good role model
like last years fifth grader, harder homework, and not go to homework club to many time or else it is going to make the fourth grader think it is okay to think that you don't have to do your homework, because they can do their homework in homework club.


P.S. It is Ronald.

I am so excited to be in fifth grade! I get to RULE THE SCHOOL!!! =D I also like outdoor school which is AWESOME! U get to go on this glider thing and climb all sorts of things! Also at the end of school we get to have this party without the fourth graders! (Sorry 4th graders =P) Did U notice I'm only using these > !

Dear Crystal,
I to can't wait for middle school but at the same time I don't want school to end, at the same time I know I am going to make more friends at the new school. I am really excited for the year because of Biz-world and all the handling for the money and the store. I also can't wait for Washington D.C. because you get to go by yourself and you get a chance to feel the experience of picking on your own by yourself but at the same time you have to follow the instructions that they give and you have to wake up at 7:30 which is not really hard. I'm also excited for outdoor school because you go to Santa Cruz and stay in log cabins while learning about stuff and it being like school.


-Nice blog Crystal

Dear Cyrstal,
Now I'm totally looking foward to fifth grade because of your exciting blog.By the end of the year I'm going to miss you and all fifth graders.I'm having a great time at Portal.You are very lucky to be in 5th grade and Anish told me you guys get to have a feast at the end of the year and, the 4th graders get to have the leftovers plus a muffin.
Sincerely,
Rohan

Justin said...

Fifth grade was great! I sort of miss it and wish portal had 6th grade like they used to.

Joshua W. said...

Yes. I am exited for the year. One reason is because we are going to go to outdoor school. It seems like a good way to get into the outdoors and learn about a few things. Math and BizWorld is also why I am looking forward to school this year.

Mandarin chicken said...

I can't tell you how excited I am. It dosen't feel like I'm in fifth grade. I just want to get in middle school so badly! So far I can see the difference between fourth and fifth grade all ready.I can't believe it's my last year at Portal:( but I will visit portal as much as I can). I'm to miss the fourth and fifth graders and miss Ms. Regosin( the fifth graders that are not going to be in my middle school). I might also see some of the last year fifth graders. Fourth graders get ready for "Shooting Star"( you will learn it later). Great post Crystal.

anish the einstein type nerd said...

I'm very intrested in being in fifth grade. True, the math is hard, but it is very cool at the same time. I heard of outdoor school and it seems very fun and exciting. I am also very interested in doing Biz World 'cause it sounds very awesome. 5TH GRADE IS GOING TO BE AWESOME!
GREAT POST, CRYSTAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Karisa said...

Hey Crystal! I really am looking forward be in 5th grade. But first I need to learn how to be a 4th grader first. and I would like to spend time with you because I won't be in the same middle school as you. Plus I would like to have you teach me a least a little bit. Then when it is almost the end of the year, the I will be exited to be in 5th grade. But I also am a little bit sad about next year because I won't see you next year and the next few years. So make sure that I will say GOOD BYE to you at the end of the year. Also GREAT JOB ON YOUR BLOG!!!!!!!

Edison said...

Crystal-

Thanks for telling me about some of the things we fourth graders might do next year. I'm looking forward to being a fifth grader next year.

Dyson said...

Yes, I sure am excited for the year. I can't wait for all the fun things we get to do! The fourth graders don't get to do what we do, which is awesome! Well, I don't mean to be offensive. (Sorry, 4th graders.) Well, this year has started with a big kick, and that can only mean that it will end in a perfect touchdown! Yeah, I really can't wait, especially with Ms. Regosin around! Of course, we can't forget Ms. McPheeters and her new husband! Man, we have so much going on already! So much for being nervous about the year. Nice post Crystal!

Mihir said...

Hi Crystal, 5th grade sounds like fun!! Just a question, what does Biz world have to do about bracelets? Also, what did you do last year instead of outdoor school? Was it the Sacramento field trip? Oh, and to answer your comment, yes I am looking very forward to 5th grade.

Alex said...

We will miss you very much and we hope that you will visit Murdok Portal!Good luck in middle school and I hope you will get good grades.I would like to ask some questions.
Is band hard or easy?Witch instrument do you think is the easiest instrument and witch instrument do you think is the hardest instrument?I really liked your blog .
Good Luck!
Alex

Ella said...

Dear Crystal,

I am excited for 5th grade but one of my best friends is in middle school and she makes it sound so fun! Next year I will be one of the oldest kids that goes to Portal. I am so excited to be a fifth grader! Also BizWorld sounds really fun. I cant wait to do the friendship bracelets.

I hope I have fun in fifth grade.I am
going to Hyde for middle school.I
think your going to have fun!:)

Rahul said...

Hi Crystal,

Is it true that you guys camp go to outdoor this year! When one-fifth grader greeted me on the first day of school I wanted to be a fifth grader. I don’t feel like I want to wear the bracelet I make at Biz World. I think I will give it to my mom. What are you going to do after the graduation? If a fifth grader plays in the band do they get free tickets to Great America? I am a little confused about that. Have fun when you go to middle school!

ZARAH! :) said...

Heyy Crystal! :) Zarah here! :) Like I said, most of the fifth graders know me! :D I was reading through the comments and I found out that Alex asked a few questions.. so just to be nice(I already am :P) I am going to answer them! :) Okay Alex, so your first question was that if band was easy. Well, since I'm taking band in middle school(I'm starting), band is pretty easy. But I guess it's kind of hard also because you have to make sure you memorize all the notes! It's fun! If you go in there with a confident feeling, then everything will turn out good! :) Your other question was which instrument is the easiest and which is the hardest. Well, in my opinion, all instruments are hard in their own ways! I think clarinet is the easiest. Sure there are lots of buttons but its not that hard! I have to say, trumpet is probably the most hardest. I know you guys might think "Oh what is Zarah saying? It's only three buttons" Well, it isn't all that easy. Just because there are three buttons, doesn't mean that it is so easy! I tried trumpet in the fourth grade and it was TOUGH! All three buttons have to go up a note higher and louder! It is very complicating! I quit on the first few weeks of band! It was that tough!
Well, I hope you 4th graders are enjoying being a Rockhopper and all you 5th graders out there, I also hope you guys are being happy that you are the oldest of the school! :) I miss all of you guys, including Ms.Regosin! :P I hope to see you all soooon <3
