Celebration is a reward 5th graders get at the end of each month. Other classes switch
rooms to hangout with their friends while playing games and eating snacks. They are always on Wednesdays so 5th graders go straight from recess to celebrations to going home. That sounds like a pretty fair deal to me. But, there is a catch. 5th graders have to earn it. If you forget your homework, forget a belt, etc., etc. you get something called a check. Your teacher records how many checks you have and if you get 4 or more then YOUR OUTTA THERE!

Celebrations are great. You get treats, you get to hang out with your friends, and you can bring electronics or toys, and play board games! I remember I would always play pictionary with my friends and we would always have to be reminded to quiet down we were so excited.
