The NY Mets In 2015

by Lilly

In 2015 the NY Mets got into the world series. These are the top 9 players :

• Curtis Granderson #3 - right field
• Ruben Tejada #11 - shortstop
• Lucas Duda # 21 - first base
• Michael Cuddyer #23 - left field
• Daniel Murphy #21 - second base
• Wilmer Flores #4 - shortstop
• Kevin Plawecki #22 - catchers
• Ruben Tejada #11 -  shortstop
• Juan Lagares #12 - center field

My favorite player is Lucas Duda. I like him because he is great. I also like him because his number is 21 and that is my lucky number. The mets had a great season. I got a little disappointed at game 5 of the world series. I hope the mets get to the world series next year and win!    

GO METS!!!

MVP: A Book Review

By: Ronald

I recently read MVP. MVP is a really good book. The book is written by Douglas Evans. It is about a 12 year old kid who is in a race to travel around the world. It all happens in a classroom when a prince named Oh wants Adam to help him complete a challenge to travel around the world. Adam will get 40 million dollars if he completes the challenge, but Adam is unaware that many dangers lie ahead and there is only forty days to go around the world with no flying allowed. Adam travels from country to country and meets many people. Will he win or get eliminated? You should read it and find out. This is a good book that will knock your socks off!

The Black Violin

by Kevin

On November 16, 2015, the entire third grade went on a field trip to listen to the band Black Violin. We took a bus to SUNY Purchase. There were four men in the band. One was a DJ, a singer/violinist, a drummer, and another violinist/singer. They let us dance a lot and I did. I would go there again if I could. Then we went back to Heathcote.

Here some of their music:

Soccer

by Ronald F

Do you ever play soccer? Well it is an awesome sport. It originated in England around the mid 19th century, but the Chinese claimed to have played a version of it before. Soccer is basically kicking a soccer ball around but you can’t foul people or receive a ball offsides. The first best player in the history is Pele. This is a list of the best players in the world:

Indoor Tennis Program

by Hope

In Scarsdale, there is a lot of tennis action! During the spring and summer, there is an outdoor tennis program. This program is held at the Scarsdale Middle School’s tennis courts. To join this program, you have to resident of Scarsdale. I had a very good experience. I did it with a bunch of my friends and we had a great time. We played a bunch of really fun games and the teacher was really funny. What happens when the spring program ends?

Michigan vs Michigan State - Oct 17

by: Lilly

The weekend of October 17th, 2015, Michigan played Michigan State. I am a Michigan fan. Both of my parents went there for college. GO BLUE! I went to the game. I was in the front row behind the end zone. Michigan State received the ball from Michigan’s kickoff. They did not get that far. Michigan was in 12th place and Michigan State was in 8th place. I was so nervous for the game to start. The worst part of the game was the end. I will tell you about it.

Stuff the Bus!

Danielle G. Kyra S. and Meena V.

Monday, November 9th, 2015 at Heathcote School was a very special and rare event. It was Pajama Day!!! On Pajama Day, at Heathcote, people are allowed to wear their favorite pajamas to school. At 10:15am all the grades came out and  to do a special tradition called Stuff The Bus.

Stuff the Bus is when all the kids of our school donate a pair of pajamas and bring them to a bin that has their teacher’s name on it. Then all the teachers hand in the bins to the office and when all the grades come outside we stuff all the pajamas into a bus giving them to less fortunate children. It was a fun experience that helped a good cause. Here are a few of our favorite pics:
