Grade Five Alive!

Tonight is our variety show!

My friends and I are in the talent show together. We are all wearing sports jerseys and doing a dance to a song called The MCAS. Liana and I are doing round offs while Mariah and Dishinia are doing cartwheels.

Mariah and Deja changed the lyrics to a Hannah Montana song called Nobody’s Perfect.  Some of the lyrics to our song are:

“We’re doing the MCAS, you study the answers, again and again, til we get them right. We’re doing the MCAS, we’re living and learning, and we wont m-ess up this test, we’ll get it perfect.”

And then it goes: 

“Test girls in the house, we’re doing the MCAS, you study the answers, again and again, til we get them right. We’re doing the MCAS, you’re living and learing and we wont m-ess up this test, we’ll get it perfect, word!”

Some of my friends are also in the variety show doing double dutch jump rope. Double dutch is when you have two long ropes, and there are two people swinging the ropes. Then one, two or even three people can jump in. There can be any song when you jump, but you have to switch your feet like “One two, swing with me.” Then, over and over you say, “One two, switch your feet.”
