Backwards and Inside out day!

January 26th, 2011

It was Backwards and inside out day at school today! I wore my pink Arkansas shirt backwards and inside out, my blue pants backwards and inside out, a ponytail on the front of my head and some dorky glasses. When I walked into the classroom Everybody was saying : "It's not nerd day" and I would say "I know! I thought the glasses were a nice touch. :)" I LOVE those glasses now. I can't stop wearing them. XD Today was a really fun day. Every one was all backwards and someone said : "Well you're supposed to wear backwards clothes, but it's backwards DAY, so you should just wear normal clothes." I thought that was clever.



This morning we had a math test that was fairly easy, and then we moved on to Science. We read Chapter 9, lesson 1, and we had a Pop quiz. The lesson was about the layers of the earth. The crust, mantle, outer core and inner core. But here's the fun part. For the pop quiz we got into groups of three and make a rap about one of the layers. I got into a group with Anna and Bailey, and Anna was the beat boxer. The rap had to have at least three facts, so we each came up with a fact and put them together. Bailey was a little shy, so we all did her line together.

Here's how the rap went (beat boxing) ♫ The top layer of the mantle is sold hot rock ♫ (beat boxing) ♫ The mantle has very, very deep pressure♫ (beat boxing) ♫ Convection flows slowly in the mantle ♫ wikki wikki wikki wikki word! I love that rap. On Friday, our teacher is going to have us perform it in front of both classes in our grade and she is going to film it. :D

We did a review in Social Studies, had an early recess, and we had a student from Hendrix College as a guest speaker who told us about Hendrix (and college in general), and he emphasized the fun and cool parts. :) Then I came home and did my homework, and now I'm blogging! And I just got some great news! My mom is upgrading our internet real soon!! Woohoo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Goodbye slow internet. XD Pretty fun for a Wednesday, huh?

Tomorrow is Thursday of Spirit Week, and it's "Color War" Day. All the grades have to wear a different color, and the goal is to be the most extreme with your color. Our grade is Blue. YEEEEAAAAHHH. I also have safety patrol tomorrow! That's my day, and keep on quacking! ;)
