Viking View

Welcome to our second year of the Viking View Newspaper. This paper is written entirely by 3rd, 4th and 5th graders. The editors this year are Bryan C., Joseph B. and Olivia N. They help with all aspects of the paper including writing, taking pictures, and typing in articles. The reporters, photographers, and artists work hard all month during one or two lunch recesses to bring you the news and this year entertainment. We hope you enjoy the articles, pictures and cartoons! Don't forget to check the weather and math puzzles this year!

If you see a reporter around town make sure you tell them how much you enjoyed their article/cartoon/puzzle!!

Mrs. Russell is a student teacher that is a student in college working to become a teacher. She does 60 days, or at least 450 hours. Her favorite part is watching students learn and grow. She doesn't like when students break the rules. That's all about Mrs. Russell and her job.

In open house I took pictures of people and in the music room

and in Ms. Chavez's room. In Mrs. Keeton’s room I saw little students. I saw Mrs. Moberly’s second graders and Mrs. Aust’s fourth graders in their rooms. Open house is when parents come to look at your desk and room.

Everybody got a kazoo because it was Miss. Snodgrass' birthday .Mrs. Berry got the kazoos off of Amazon. The reason why was to kazoo Happy Birthday for miss Snodgrass on her birthday . Then we got to take them home. That is what I heard for the kazoos.

On Thursday Oct 10, 2024 The staff members wore Christmas clothes. They have lost their mind! First they got weird cups on October 8th. I think they are playing a trick on the kids. What are they going to do next? The elf came to our school, her name is Winter. Maybe she came to remind us that it’s not Christmas. She said see you in 8 weeks.

We did a fire drill and we got in line and walked out the building. We jumped out the window and walked back through the door. We are also going to the church and finally, we are going to have a earthquake drill. Kendall and ady

The instruments Mr.Schlegel got are new wooden xylophones. He got the new instruments from China. Also, he got them by license plate money. License plate money means you ask for money from the state, they then fundraise by selling license plates. This is about the new interesting instruments.

In 5th grade we are learning a lot, here are a few things we are learning. We are reading about native Americans and their houses, such as wigwams and teepees. In math we were learning multi digit multiplication and decimals in the tenths, hundredths, and thousandths place. In writing we are doing a persuasive paper about sports. These are just a few things we are learning about in 5th grade!!!

Mrs. Keeton's class is learning to count to five. They are also learning about apples. They are learning about counting to ten now and finishing apple science that they started October 3, 2024.

Over the summer Miss Berry, Ms. Sowa, Ms. Chavez, Mrs. Anderson and Mrs. Keeton looked and measured trees. The pancakes there were extraordinary! Ms Keeton is an amazing driver there on the way to the science camp. They also read on the dock and they said it was very fun! Mrs.A taught Ms. berry and ms.keeton how to play Nertz. They also learned about carbon sequestration in old growth forests. That is how much carbon trees hold. That is what science camp is about.

Can you answer these multiplication facts? Answers will be in next months newspaper!

We picked this book because we have read it before. We liked it because it was spooky and funny at the same time. There are pop-up photos on every page. We borrowed the book from Mrs. Aust’s class. It starts, “On a spooky , scary night,five pesky pumpkins are out to make mischief and give their friend's a fright.” We think the grade level of the kids that should be reading this book is kindergarten or first grade.

Andi’s favorite part is page 5 because Three Sneaky pumpkins stir up a gooey brew and the pop-up feature is a witch eating the gooey brew.

The Titans are doing well this year they lost a couple games and won the rest . But homecoming they won 53 to 16 against RSB. They have a chance of making the playoffs this year.
