5 more days until Christmas!

There are only 5 more until Christmas!  It's going to be awesome!  When Vik and Pranav come we already have it all planned out.  Yugioh, yugioh yugioh, and some other things and family time!  Also on Christmas day we're going to watch the,  "Hobbit".  I can't wait!

Yugioh book series (again)

So I'm reading a really awesome new yugioh book series.  The ones I've told you about in the past have been newer versions and a different time of yugioh.  The ones I'm reading right now are the earliest versions of yugioh.  It's just as good as the other yugioh books because it's written and illustrated from the same guys as in the other books.  So in other words..... they are AWESOME!

Paper Christmas Tree's

Today at school we made paper chain Christmas Tree's!  It was fun!  It took 21 green pieces, 3 brown pieces, 1 yellow piece, 1 star, and 6 ornaments. ( Paper.)

It's really easy and fun to make but make sure you have tape and/or a stapler. 

Nazca Lines

In GEL I'm working on three things about the Nazca Lines.  I'm working on an acrostic poem, and a thing where I pretend a new Nazca Line was found and I have to write about it and stuff.  That will be cool!  Last I'm going to make a Nazca Lines game board.  I'll explain it to you after I finish it.

Dodgeball

Today was AWESOME!  We got to play dodgeball and my team won both times.  (A little weird right!  Both teams that won had me on their team)  Then afterwards we got a root beer float party.  It was really fun!

I thought I saw a Barn Owl....I did I did! I did see a Barn owl!

Today on the way home from school I saw a BARN OWL!  It was flying above us really high and looked exactly like a barn owl!  It was a good thing to come home to!  I wish that Grayson was here to see it with me because he likes birds as much as I do! :)

GEL Class

Every Monday and Wednesday I have GEL class.  It's actually pretty fun!  Henry is in GEL to, so I like to sit with him.  We are learning about enigmas.  Enigmas are a thing that people don't know how it happens or anything.  They are things like; the Bermuda Triangle, the lost Roanoke Island, the Pyramids, the Nazca Lines, the Lost city of Atlantis, things like that.  I'm learning about the Nazca Lines.  Here's a fun fact, did you know that some yugioh cards are based off the Nazca Lines?  Okay, that might not be what you wanted to hear about them so I'll tell you a different one.  They make shapes in the ground that are like, monkeys, spiders, whales, snakes, birds and lot's of other things.  Did you know that the monkeys tail is 160 ft. long?

GEL

I'm in GEL now.  I have no clue what it stands for but I don't really care.  It's for "Gifted and Talented" people.  I think every one is gifted and talented but in different things or ways.  Also they just point out the people who are "Gifted and Talented" and make others feel dumb or not smart.  But I'm okay with being in GEL.

Dad!

TODAY IS MY DAD'S BIRTHDAY!  My mom made a cake with almond slices on the sides and chocolate in the middle with vanilla frosting! Yum!  He's turning 40 years old!  He's not old yet in my opinion.  I love you Dad!


   Love, Bennett

What Should I call this... My opinion of math?

Decimals.  In 5'th grade we are learning decimals?  We learned that in 3'rd 4'th and now 5'th.  Don't you think that after "reviewing it" a "couple" times you would finally get it.  I might be judging some people who have a hard time learning math but still, in 3 school years and over the summer you should probably learn decimals.  But maybe I'm just being unthoughtful since my mom taught me really good in homeschool.

My yugioh story

I'm making my own yugioh story!  It's going to be really good.  Those of you reading this who have no idea of how yugioh works or how to play it-just as a warning when you read it you won't understand half of it probably.  So I recomend looking into some yugioh rulebooks.  But anyway I just started the story not to long ago. (Last night.)  So it's still in work.

Basketball

Last Sunday my basketball team got to stay at Farmington this week for the tournament!  It was cool.  We won against St. Paul on Saturday but lost against Eagan and Lakeville North.  We came in 4'th place out of 8 places!  I think we did pretty good.
