Coin War

by Kailey


This week we are starting a Coin War for the 4th grade Austin Field Trip to earn more money. Coin War started November 5th and will end November 15th. Who ever wins Coin War, the top grade/class, gets a reward. Coin War also provides coins, sometimes dollars can work but, coins get more value. Wow! That’s shocking! But, did you know that in Coin War, the best  4th grade teacher, Mr.Cataffo is in the lead??? And wow was he shocked. Well, that’s all right now.

Dallas Cowboys vs. Denver Broncos

by:Hannan


“TOUCHDOWN!”  shouted Bill Cowher when Romo got his 5th touchdown and 506 yds (career high!) The score was tied at 48. Then,  the Cowboys kicked it off. That’s when the Cowboys D (defense) made the Broncos go 3 and out (that means the Broncos got a turnover) So, that caused Romo to go on a role... but thats when Romo got an interception and the person who got the interception ran to the 20. Romo threw the interception with 1:53 left to play! After that, the Boncos field goal unit came out.’’ The kick is up... and it’s GOOD!!! ”Most Cowboys fans blamed Romo for the loss. But I disagree because who threw 506 yds, and who threw 5 touchdowns. Also who made the Cowboys score there carreer high points (I think. ) Most fans think that it was the best game in the century! Also since the game was so good and close, fans want them to play two times a season!
