Assignment: Fifth grade students were asked to look over the school website, choose a favorite photo, copy it in a MS Word document, and write about it.

          It is very fun playing basketball. It is also fun stealing and shooting the ball. I’m number 3 in basketball, and I am a point guard. My coaches in basketball are Mrs. Bennett and Mrs. Bromley, they are very good coaches. Are team also likes to be aggressive. Our team does very good in basketball, and we have won all our games so far too. I’ve gotten two fouls in basketball so far. I love to play basketball, it is very fun. ~Lauryn

           My football season was great. I played tight end on offense and defensive end on defense. In this picture we were playing Kingsley, and I almost intercepted the ball but I wasn’t thinking right and sort of swatted the ball down. Our team didn’t do well we lost every game except this one we tied 0-0. After the game I was really down because if I would have caught it and ran I might have scored because I was 18 yards from the endsone for a touchdown. Our record was 0-6-1 which means no wins, six losses, and one tie. My football season was great. ~Austin

Spirit week was very awesome this year. The thing that made spirit week awesome was blue and gold day. Why? They let us show our team spirit for the Portagers. In the morning Mrs. Brown sold glow sticks. By 2:00 there was a humungous pep assembly for homecoming. The things that they did were have a belching contest, had a teacher get a pie in the face, and have three football players put on a dress. This whole pep assembly was awesome!! ~Kyle

          Our classes Halloween party was AWESOME!! At our Halloween party Lauryn’s mom brought in balloons and we were blowing them up and let them go and they would fly and squeak. Also we played Guitar Hero and I got creamed on Eye of the Tiger. Also Kiara creamed Austin by 20,000 points on a song by Bon Jovi. Another thing we did is we had a doughnut contest and we had to eat the doughnuts of a string hanging from the ceiling. Also two people got pied. The two people that got pied were Taler and Matt. Matt pied Taler and Brooke pied Matt. Then we ate junk food and watched the movie Mall Cop. The Halloween was the best one yet. ~Kelly

          The first 5th grade basketball game was a lot of fun. We played Bear Lake. I’m shooting a free throw in this picture. We beat Bear Lake 20 to 8. I got the ball a lot and made one basket. The game was awesome. ~Kiara

          I had a great time in school. It was a great time because this day was spirit day. On spirit day everyone wears blue and gold. The reason everyone wears blue and gold is to support the Onekama football team and other Onekama teams. The cheer leaders set up the whole thing. The best thing they planned was some of the football players had to dress up in dresses. It was funny. What it really was is a super model thing because the boys had to walk down the gym and pose for us. Everyone had a great time. ~April

I had a fun time with the new computers. When we got our new computer’s it was fun. One of the things that are fun about them is that they are touch screen. They also have a web cam.  That’s why I like them. ~Mark

           My first basketball game was great. We one 20-8.We played Bear Lake. I am one of the point guards. That game I made a lot of assists. About 5 assists. I had so much fun! ~Kassidy

 

          Spirit week was the best. We had a pep assembly for the homecoming game. We are getting ready for the pep assembly to start. I was shocked in how many players they had for the high school football team. It was so loud in the gym when the pep assembly started! First the cheerleaders did a dance they made up. Then they announced the high school football team. I think the pep assembly was really fun! ~Bobby

I had a great time at the Halloween party this year. We did so many things. We got to play guitar hero, I wore my costume, I got to eat snacks, we watched mall cop, and as you can see we decorated our pumpkins. My pumpkin didn’t turn out so good. It was so fun. And I also got a surprise, my aunt and uncle came to see me at the party.  Oh and some people got pie in their face. I had a lot of fun at the party. We also had a doughnut eating contest. I lost because I couldn’t get the doughnut into my mouth. I liked the party this year. ~Brooke

The day of my first game was great. I had a lot of fun and also got a hold of the ball. The thing that really scared me was Makayla S. was gone so I had to jump! But I actually got the jump. I thaught the game was going to be hard but instead it was actually easy. And plus we won our first game! That was great. ~Alexis #10

           

          The day before Halloween we had a Halloween Party. We had snacks and had a donut contest. Lauryn’s mom and grandma came in and made shacks. Kiara brought in the movie  Mall Cop. I seen Mall Cop before. My class also played Guitar  Hero. I vs. Mister. Bradford and I won. ~Kassie

          On October 27, 2009 the fifth grade basketball team had a great first game. The score was 20 to 8. We were the winners. The game was at our gym not Bear Lake’s gym. Two of are players were out. Makayla S. and Michele were the ones out. Makayla S. was sink and Michele broke her collarbone. Bear Lake was a hard team. ~Grace
