Ski Time by Seraphina

 Ski time!

    On Thursday we went to hidden valley, which are ski slopes about an hour away from our school! All three Clayton schools went, including us! My favorite part was going on the ski lift and skiing down the bunny slope. It was a lot of fun! The hart part about using the ski lift was getting off, we had to be fast enough to ski off the lift, and not have the seat bump us on the butt. That was my problem. On the very last time I went on the ski lift I managed to get off without falling, but I was unaware that I got off to early, and the seat I was sitting in bumped me really, really hard in the butt. Which sent me flying into the artificial snow! If you have skied before, you would know how hard it is to get up once you have fallen. Yes, really hard, I fell so many times, which resulted in me having to get up so many times as well. That part of it was very unpleasant. Another thing I really enjoyed was going on the rope tow. A rope tow is something you grab onto, and it pulls you up to the top of the hill. It takes you really, really fast up the hill and so many people fell off because of this. Also, lunch was amazing. Eating one slice of pizza and an ice cold drink of Hi-C is the best thing in the world after you ski! Skiing is awesome, (and hard)!

Instead of going to Hidden Valley, I just stayed at school and helped 4th grade. I usually stay at school to help classes every year when there is a field trip. In 3rd grade I stayed and helped 1st grade instead of going to Meramec Caverns. And last year in 4th grade, I stayed and helped 1st grade again instead of going to Jefferson City. Yesterday, I just helped Mrs. Hallan's class. But since nobody needed help, I just did some math, read my book and worked on Social Studies Homework. I basically had to go to specials with them, go to recess with them, and well, did everything that they did. It was a little weird because people might have been scared of me just because I am a 5th grader, but really, they should not be scared of me at all! It just could have been I was taller than a lot of them, but still! I hoped that they liked me and I would be happy to do it again any time.

I wonder if next year, you have to go to the field trips?

Ski Trip by Edward

We went on a ski trip and it was really fun. The only really boring thing was that people got to go on the ski lift but I did not. People Were sneaking on to the ski lift but I did not and that was good. The food was so good also it was horrible because we got one lazy piece of pizza and baby carrots that is not a lot of food for me. The ski trip was kinda dangerous people who did not know how to ski ran into people like me. It was my first time skiing but we went back so I could actually have more fun on the ski lift.

Hidden Valley Ski Lunch

THE SKI LUNCH By:Drake

The ski lunch is probably

the best school lunch you've ever had so let me tell you about it. So it first starts out with you coming in at 11:15 exclusively for Glenridge school Starving and thirsty for a pizza and soda and it's of your choice of anything you want to have from that soda machine  and a really good thick crust cheese pizza and some baby carrots.Then you get to sit down by anyone with (only glenridge students) and have a blast. And when you're done you dismiss yourself to go back outside to go skiing.
