73. Sixth Grade David L Claremont, CA Mr.Simpson’s Class
In sixth grade, I enjoyed the read alouds that Mr. Simpson did after lunch. He made the books come to life by making the voices very funny and interesting. While we were reading Bridge to Terabithia, he did May Belle’s voice and screamed, “She stole my twinkies!” It was really funny. He gave the characters a specific voice so it was easy to recognize who was “speaking” whenever he read a book aloud.
We also did masks of pharaohs and painted them with blue stripes after Mr. Simpson spray-painted them gold.
I also liked 100 Mile Club where the goal was to get 100 miles by the end of the school year.

One memory of third grade I had occurred at our End of the Year party, which was Pioneer Day. We had to choose if we would dress up as cowboys, Indians, or pioneers. I dressed up as a pioneer. After the party, though, we were able to go out for regular recess, but we still had our costumes on. One girl, who wasn’t in the third grade, asked if I was Amish because I was wearing clothes of someone from the 1800s.

It was also in Mrs. Porterfield’s class with my best friend Roxana. It was also the year Roxana moved, and I met my friend, Sarah M.!

90. Fifth Grade Kiana
Mrs. Amaya was my fifth grade teacher. Fifth grade was a great year for me. We did Colonial Polyhedraville where we made 3-D paper houses, and then each table group made a village. I made a salt box style house, and a two story hipped. The whole fifth grade went to overnight camp inland from Dana Point. Cabin thirteen consisted of Brooke, Kyra, Annie, Kiana, Sabrina, Diana, Rachel, Helene, and our chaperone, Mrs. Piibe. The first night, we had no hot water so we took cold showers. Also, at breakfast one morning, there was one pancake left and Jacob and I stared across the table at each other. Jacob said I could have it, but I said he could have it. We went back and forth until Sydney Fortson said she would eat it. We learned about the different ecosystems. We caught frogs and on the way back after we stopped at Dana Point, the bus with cabin thirteen, some boys, two teachers, one parent, and the luggage, broke down. We were late back to school, but that field trip was great!!!! My class also did a play.

91. Sixth Grade Diana
` My teacher for Sixth Grade is Mr. Simpson. In Sixth Grade, I met my friends: Kymberlie S., Carly D., Laurel M., and many other friends. My favorite part Sixth Grade so far, is the Egyptian mask. I was thrilled to learn that we were making Egyptian masks. I think it was clever, the way we used newspaper strips, dipped in bleach for the masks. It was so fun!
Other things I enjoyed in Sixth Grade were the Chinese robes and the food chain project. It was very interesting and I learned a lot.
I will miss Condit when I go to Seventh Grade, and I will never forget Sixth Grade, my last year at Condit.
