KDD Trip
When we went on the KDD field trip I felt good about going. I was sort of right. I learned a lot and did a lot. The only thing the that bugged me was that there were Korean girls always taking my picture. I still had a great time though. When we went to the Korean Folk Museum I learned so much about Korean history. The Korean Folk Village had way more stuff to do. There was a musical dance and someone walking across a rope.

Helping KAIAK
I went out and helped the KAIAK soccer and KAIAK cross country. In the beginning, on first time being there I had no idea what I was in for. It was the kind of day where people think it was nasty. It was very nasty, in my beliefs. The cross country teams were being prepped and told how the course was being laid out. In the mean time I was learning how to work at my station. I had to control the time and the horn. It was hard at first but I got the hand of it. And thats when I got the hang of it. I was just in time to start cross country. I am not sure of the places, but I did here people saying SFS did really good. I was happy and got pumped to help with soccer. I was getting a little hungry. Mrs. Sell-Haynes helped me by letting me going to the Coaches Corner for free. I ate real well. The soccer was hard. There were three fields and everybody had to be on the correct one. It was hard but I did it. It was also hard because the soccer ball was always coming toward the main computer. I had to keep saving the computer.
The next week there was the elite team of KAIAK soccer was ready to play. The elite teams were the best players off the first teams. This job was even harder because I had to keep scores right, give points, run the clock, keep the food off the field, make barriers, and eat off the Coaches Corner. The clock was really hard because it was not working right. We got through the day with SFS Boy's coming in fourth place and SFS Girls coming in First place.
It was really fun and there was so much to do. I hope there is more tournaments to come. And lots more stuff to do for our school.

Road Trip Project
In the road trip project we worked in partners of 2 or 3. I was with Noah Plues. The main idea of this project was to get money from doing tasks and go to many different areas and keep a positive balance of money. We unfortunately went into a negative balance. We still had a great place seeing different places and calculating different things. I really thought I did most of the work.
Ancient Mesopotamia
We had a simulation on Ancient Mesopotamia. We had a board and moved around with our armies getting spots for civilization points. We did tasks to buy money. I was in the Medes group and we came in to 4th place out of our class. We all had a great time playing this game. But we all got frustrated at sometimes but managed to pull through.
Student Lead Conference
In Social Studies we had a Wax Museum, and I was Alexander The Great. We all dressed up as Mythological or historical Greeks. It went really well. I was pretty amazing. No one ever left me in the middle of my speech. I also did not stand there for more than 30 seconds without somebody coming to me.

Middle School Concert
We just had a concert in the middle school. It was on May eighteenth All the grades on the middle school played in the this concert. I played the trumpet in the Intermediate band. It is mixed up of mostly sixth graders and a few seventh and eighth graders. We played two songs, Atlantis and The Harmonious Blacksmith. We had to sit for three more hours, because we were the first band to go. It was fun while we were playing but not for three more hours of plain sitting and not getting to drink anything. But it was nice to hear the music.

KIACK Volleyball
There are many KIACK sports, but the one I was most interested in was the volleyball team. There were a lot of practices for getting ready for all of our tournaments. I attended them all. Our first jamboree was awesome. Every team in SFS won all of their games. But the practice before the game, we had a group meeting. Mrs. Sell-Haynes and Mrs. Gillet said they had picked out a few kids from the teams, some boys, some girls. They said they did not favor us but they picked the people that worked the best with everyone. Giu and I fortunately made that team. (hint: We are both 6th graders) This was called the elite team. We won the game with my beautiful set to David Pang and he spiked the ball for the win. The other team I played with was also really good. We won all our games in all of our tournaments.
Medieval Fair
Our last project of the year is the Medieval Fair. It is where we study something from the Middle ages and create a poster with all of our sub-topics on it. Mr. Walker let us choose what main topic we wanted to study. There were five topics we could choose from: Inventions, Games, Food, Knighthood, and Child. I picked Inventions. So did Kenan, Andrew, and Saejin. Those three boys are in my group. We have to come up with our costume, our whole poster, and sub-topics to research and present to the class. Everyone has to come up with their own costume. (Luckily I Already Finished That Part) We finished getting our sub-topics picked and started on the board. That was the easy part. We finished but then had to come up with the board design. Then we had to put up our board in our booth so we could present there to all of the younger kids. Our activity is a word search. It has key words that were used in medieval inventions. I think the Medieval Fair will beis fun.

We have finished 6th grade math and science. So the teachers wanted us to do something academic. We had to make
