In my opinion the first day of school was awesome! I really enjoyed the scavenger hunt in the classroom. Not only did I have so much fun but now I also know where everything is! I can't wait to start creating and decorating my Me Bag! I think it's a super creative way to express yourself. I also enjoyed getting to know you and all the other kids in my class. I can't wait for the rest of the year!

At the beginning of the day I was very unsure what the rules and exceptions. My feelings were changing by the middle of the day I was exited. I enjoyed doing the scavenger hunt. I liked the scavenger hunt because it makes us learn about where everything is in the classroom .I got surprised that we only had 1 recces.The 1st day of 5th grade was amazing.

My first day of 5th grade went great. I liked how organized the classrooms was so its easier to move around. My favorite area in the classroom is the library area because there are so many categories of books to choose. I also liked that there was a basketball hoop in my classroom. It will be fun to play with. It was great to see all of my friends. I wish we got to play outside for recess but it was still fun inside. I think I am going to have a great 5th grade year.

I enjoyed the first day of school! I felt a bit nervous as I was walking into class, but I felt more and more comfortable as the day proceeded. Most of the time, the teacher was introducing things, but the fun activities kept it occupying. I found the “Last Man standing” game fun, because it was cool to here what everybody things were. I was surprised to see all of my old teachers there. It was also funny to see my old classmates. I also enjoyed talking with my friends at lunch. I liked our first specialist and I am excited for the many more to come! I’m excited to have outdoor recess tomorrow (If the rain actually stops!) and to play with my friends. I really enjoyed my first day, but it’s mind boggling to think that I have 179 more to go!!

The first day of school was enjoyable and I look forward to the year ahead. The scavenger hunt was enjoyable and a nice way to learn about each other. One of the answers was found in the dictionary which was intriguing place to discover an answer. The scavenger hunt must have taken a long time to put together.

I was surprised by the fact that the specialist was at 1:40 pm in the afternoon. The specialist was focused on Spanish. During Spanish, we played a game with partners and it was a good way to refresh my memory of Spanish words.

I look forward to this school year and I hope to learn a lot.

At the beginning of the day I was kind of excited about starting school. I am excited to be in the 5th grade this year. I am happy with who I sit with. I am excited for when we get to use the basketball hoop in class. I was surprised to hear about the fun field trips we get to go on this year. Recess was fun. I liked playing taps with all my friends, but I wish we could have gone outside. I had a good first day of 5th grade.

My first day of school was ok but I did not know how to get to your classroom at first, but then when I got there, I did not know how to react .East school was not a good school for me but now I think that this school is good for me. Nobody here gave me funny looks like last year I am so happy to have a good 5th grade year. I felt like in the middle of the day that I could talk to people. I am excited for the future.

I had a splendid first day of school! Although I am outraged about having half the time at recess, as I used to in 4th Grade. I was astonished that we didn’t have any math today. I appreciated having specialist, at the tail-end of the day. I am looking forward to this semester, with all the fun projects we do.

At the beginning of the school day I was very nervous, I was so nervous that I was scared to talk to most people. but throughout the day I became less anxious and more confident! I'm a little disappointed that we don't have 2 recesses, but at least it will prepare me for middle school when I have no recess time. But on the upside I had a great time at recess, and I also loved last man standing.

I forgot to do one more sentence in my paragraph, so just act like this was part of it. I admire the effort of having a basketball hoop, in the classroom.

My first day of fifth grade was better than I expected! I was excited for the day to start. I wondered who I would sit next to and what we were going to do today. I also wondered what we were going to do in Spanish. I was happy with my seat in class and in lunch. I really liked the classroom because it was very organized. I thought the classroom scavenger hunt and the Me Bag was fun to do.

I wondered if we were going to have homework for tonight. I was very surprised that we could eat snack any time we wanted. I was disappointed that we don't have a first recess and that we have recess before lunch.

Overall, my first day was very fun! I am relieved that I had an amazing day that ended with coming home to my happy, tail - wagging dog. I wonder what we will do tomorrow and if it will be as good as today.

I loved my first day of fifth grade so much. At the beginning of the day, I felt nervous, excited, and worried. But those feelings changed quickly, by the middle of the day I wasn't concerned anymore I was just excited to find out more about everything. I wish we had a more extended recess but I can't complain. I loved playing the last man standing and doing the scavenger hunt. I cannot wait to see how the rest of the year turns out.

The first day of school was fun. I got to see some of my friends that I haven't been in the same class with in a long time. I was a little nervous at first, but then it was better at the end of the day. I thought that the scavenger hunt was pretty fun too. Finding out that there is now only going to be one recess now surprised me. I wish that we had done some math, but it's fine. Also thought that Spanish was really fun too. The first day of school was really fun and I am looking forward to doing other stuff this year.

The first day of fifth grade was enjoyable and better than I had expected. I was nervous at the start of the day because I had no idea where my classroom was because I missed the open day, but I made my way to the classroom. I started feeling less nervous in the middle of the day. I liked the classroom because it was really organized so it was easy to find everything on the scavenger hunt.

I really liked how we could eat anytime we wanted, I was upset that we did not have our snack\recess well it was fine because I don't do much at recess. The last man standing, and the scavenger hunt were fun activities because I learned a lot of things that are in the classroom and the last man standing was fun because we got to learn about each other. The classroom was not that big, but it was still fine. I just expected it to be bigger. I had a great first day of school and I can't wait to see how the rest of the fifth grade will turn out.

I really enjoyed the first day of school. Reasons to see that is in the following. I thought it was cool on how there were so many things to see and do in the classroom. I really enjoyed the scavenger hunt that we did today. I'm exited for the year ahead and all the fun activities we will do later in the year. And I'm glad we can go to the bathroom almost anytime. I cant wait to see the fun things we will do for the next 179 days.

At the beginning of the day I was a bit shy and nervous for 5th grade. I loved playing last man standing to see everybody's hobbies and interests. Towards the middle of the day I felt less shy and nervous because I learned more about my classmates. I'm surprised that this year we don't have 2 recesses. Can't wait for the rest of the year.

My first day of school made me think that this is going to be an awesome year. I loved the first day because we got to hear every detail of what 5th grade will be like. We also got to play "tips" during indoor recess. The chicken nuggets at lunch tasted amazing. The class learned about different countries and their culture. Overall, the first day could not have gone better.
