FOCUS at Rock Springs ES

Fifth grade FOCUS has been pretty fun. I liked learning about other things that we usually don't learn in any normal classes. It can be really hard especially math. I moved to Rock Springs last year and I met my new focus class. I really disliked it at first but I liked getting away from the class and having more challenging things. It has been a great opportunity that not many people get. My favorite part of fourth grade focus was reader's theatre. It let me overcome some of my shyness and helped me be able to talk in front of other people. Our focus teacher- Mrs.Zawacki- was great. I have had her since last year and she has helped me a lot with my struggles and gave me a great experience.




Right now in fifth grade focus, we are learning about Shakespeare and many of the plays he has written. In our focus class we are doing the play A Midsummer Night's Dream. It is a confusing story about people from different backgrounds falling inlove with the wrong person. It is a reader's theatre and I am excited to do it. I haven't done readers theatre in a long time so I am a little bit nervous about it. We have learned a lot about Shakespeare and I have become more interested in him and his writing. I never thought I would like anything like that. It was kind of boring for me but I got really curious about it. It is something that I would love to learn more about.




This is my last year in elementary school going to be how I thought it would. Moving here to Rock Springs was the best thing that happend to me and I will miss it. My favorite part of the year was the field trip to Callaway Gardens. It was fun. This year has been a great year and one that I will never forget. I have had a wonderful time learning new things and being with my friends. I was lucky to have this chance and I loved being in focus. I will miss all of the teachers that have helped me here and I will miss many of my friends that I won't get to see anymore. This year was like no other and I know it has been the best.
