Recess Soccer

By


There is a lot to do at recess. There is a play structure, tag, swings, talking with friends, playing capture the flag, or playing soccer.

 We have been watching a different kind of soccer game that the 4-5 girls and boys have been playing at recess. They call it World Cup. We thought it was interesting so we decided to write about it. It is a very organized game but it doesn't look that way at first. Everyone makes teams. Team Canada says there thing is pizza. They were the first team to score on the first round. One of the other teams is called Cheesed Off. Their mascot is an angry goat. Aidan (a player of team Cheesed Off) is good at soccer and he enjoys it. He plays soccer outside of school on a team called Portland Phoenix. Alexander is also good at soccer and plays on Phoenix with Aidan. Today, the team Blue Raincoats players were Ben and Ben. Their mascot is a hyper bear. Team Brazil was the first team to score in the second round. CC is also a good player and likes scoring on the boys. She hopes to have a real soccer goal instead of the cones.

 Today, Team Gummy Bear was the first team to score when Keller headed it in the goal. Team Gummy Bear's mascot is a gummy bear. Team Gummy Bear says their team is awesome. Canada was the second team to score Alex, a player of Canada, says he is a Canadian at heart. Nathan. a player of Canada, says the game is awesome. Did you know that Nathan loves pizza? CC says it is fun to score. Joey says its a very good experience to be goalie but he does not like it when people argue with him. They always work it out. We just want to play. It is easy when everyone wants to play with each other.

Sometimes people don't play World Cup. They play tag, games, and use the play structure. Sometimes they play a regular game of soccer. Today they played a regular game of soccer. There was a lot of running and kicking but the ball got kicked over the fence so they can't play soccer anymore until the ball comes back. Instead of soccer they started a game of infection. Infection is a tag game. Some of the other players hung out on the arch. Recess is a fun time for all of us.

Mystery Trip - 2025

By
Every year 4-5 takes a mystery trip. We don't know where we are going and we find out when we get there. Sometimes we go to the beach or a lake. The teachers kick off the conversation with absurd ideas. Sometimes it is an exotic place or a spot that doesn't even exist. This year they told us we were going to a bean factory, (which was knocked down) a farm that had a rare and elusive invisible sheep called cloud sheep, and that we would be working for the Morton Salt Company picking salt off the salt hay on the marsh. The teachers told us that after we help with the beans and salt we would get credit on the labels of the containers and we would get to bring home the wool of the cloud sheep. Last year's kick off was even more absurd. They told us we were going to a donut farm to plant donut seeds which were cheerios, go to have tea with the late Queen in England, go on a treasure hunt, and visit the cheese museum. After telling us where we were going the teachers gave us a pa...

Self Portraits

By
A few weeks ago, we started creating self portraits. We learned about Romero Britto and his style , which includes patterns, bold lines, bright colors and simple designs. We all added food into our Romero Britto-inspired self-portraits because we are telling people about ourselves and our favorite foods. We are doing a study called Local Foods and we are adding foods, sometimes in repetitive patterns, to our portraits. We hung the portraits in our classroom and now we can see the similarities and differences in our class. By showing our favorite foods others can relate and connect to us. We assembled the foods into bright patterns and divided the sections with thick black lines like Romero Britto. We also hid other things we like into our self portraits. We put as much detail as we could into the pieces to show our identities. After we finished them, we mounted them on black paper and hung them on the wall. We hope you like them.  This is our first blog post of the year and we work...

Grandparents And Friends

By
We are Kat and Suzy! We are going to be bringing you this information about Grandparents and Friends Day!!!!! On May 2, 2025 at 8:47 our Grand Friends came to Waynflete. We go to share what we are doing in school like RQs, which stands for research quest. That is a research project where we read, take notes, and write an essay. But that's not our focus of this blog so we will get back to Grandparents and Friends Day. We did some writing together, shared some math, and gave tours of our classroom. Our grandparents and friends were happy to see us and they said school was different for us than it was for them. We also had Pachanga with our grand friends. We all sang songs together like when people from Nancy's home station went up and showed everyone the motions to peace like a river in sign language! And that's a wrap! by Kat and Suzy
