Onekama's 5th and 6th Grade Cheerleaders

Coached by
Erin Brown

          This year I am in cheerleading. Yesterday we got our uniforms. We also got our pictures. All of my friends are in cheerleading. For example, Ashley, Jessica, Somer, Brandi, Courtney L, Courtney M, and Larissa. The sixth graders are in cheerleading also. Some of are cheers are Ready to go, Dribble it, Dynamite, and Clear the way. Our coach is Erin Brown. She is a really nice coach. She is not like the basketball coaches on ESPN. I think she is the best coach I ever had. I really love cheerleading. My favorite cheer is Dynamite. The Onekama train is really embarrassing. I am going to be in cheerleading next year because cheerleading is the best sport ever. We are going to cheer for the 5th and 6th grade boys basketball team. Cheerleading is the best.

          This year I’m in cheerleading. We have been practicing for cheerleading since February.  The 5th and 6th grade girls are mixed together for cheerleading. In cheerleading there are 18 girls. That’s the most girls there has ever been. We had a practice a couple days ago and Larissa had been messing around with Madison and had pushed Madison in to the boys bathroom. We were out in the hallway practicing when she did this and she was even in the hallway practicing with us. We have our first game to cheerlead for on Monday. We have to get white cheerleading shoes too. We had our cheerleading pictures yesterday. That means we had to get our uniforms yesterday. Our uniforms have a yellow skirt and a top that says Onekama on it. Then we had to get into our uniforms and they were kind of uncomfortable at first but then we got used to it.  I’m very glad that I’m in cheerleading. ~no name on paper

          This year in fifth grade I’m in cheerleading. After school we have cheerleading and about every Tuseday and Thursday we have practice. We are cheering for the fifth grade boys weird. There some pretty cool cheers. My favorites are hott to go, rowdy, Onekama train, the mighty Portagers, Dynamite, alligator, and we don’t mess around. Our coach is Erin Brown. She’s really nice and it’s fun being on the team or squad what ever you want to call it. We are having so much fun.

      This year I am in cheerleading. It’s so much fun. There are so many people in cheerleading. There are fifth and sixth graders. The coach is Erin Brown. She is so nice. We have learned so many cheers. Some of the cheers are dribble it, ready to go, dynamite, clear the way, let’s go, and we don’t mess around. So far we have had about four to five practices. Our first game is this coming Monday. One cheer called the Onekama Train is so embarrassing.  Yesterday we got our uniforms. I think cheerleading is awesome. I want to be in cheerleading next year. Cheerleading is the best. ~Ashley, grade 5
