K-5 Reflection

I started my schooling at Alden Primary School in kindergarten. I made best friends with the people I didn’t know that I’d spend the next 13 years of my life with. I looked up to everyone that was older and I couldn’t wait to be them. After kindergarten ended, I traveled down the hall and met my all-time favorite teacher, Mrs. Schmidt. We walked out to the buses every day, ate snack together, and I couldn’t wait to see her again the next day after a day ended. She even pulled out my first tooth and I was so excited to tell her that the tooth fairy came. It broke my heart leaving her going onto 2^nd grade but we stayed in touch. In 2^nd grade I remember going room to room during the day collecting money every Friday for dress down day. 3^rd grade I moved up to the intermediate school, it was a weird experience to move up into another school. I had very long blonde hair that I decided to donate in 4^th grade to locks of love. My hair went to someone that needed a wig due to a disease or something else. It made me feel good to help someone else in need. I had Mr. Perry that year, and he always stood on his desk and jumped off doing an air guitar. I’ll never forget when we were reading Indian in the cupboard. Cookie Altieri put gum across her eyebrows pretending to be the main character, she got it stuck and had to go to the bathroom to try to get it off. We still joke about it today,almost 8 years later. In 5^th grade we celebrated our moving up day. We all began our adventures in Alden Middle School.
