Josiah Quincy Elementary School  昆士小學

Clubs

One thing that the Josiah Quincy School does for the fifth graders is Clubs.  Clubs are only for fifth graders and in the beginning of the year you go to the auditorium and they give you a sheet of paper and you write you name and you pick your top three choices of what you would like to do for your club.  There are many choices like Sports Club, Drama Club, Chinese Brush Painting, Newspaper Club, Dance Club and Internet Club.  Soon they will let you know which club you are assigned to from your top three choices you have picked.  You can go to your club every Friday, last period unless you need to do extra work or unfinished work.

From the 6 clubs there are many choices to pick from such as:

Sports - It is much like Physical Education but you can do many other free things like you don’t have to do games or any thing that she assigns.  You may do things like basketball games, gymnastics, practicing basketball, etc.  The Sports Club may have a Student verses Teachers basketball game near the end of the year.  The teachers are Mrs.Yee and Mrs.Graff.

Drama - You can talk about Shakespearean plays, practice voice projecting, practice plays, improvise plays, you get to go into costumes, you get to go on cool and fun field trips and near the end of the year you get to do a Shakespeare play in the school auditorium.  The teacher is Ms.Doyle.

Chinese Brush Painting- You can learn how to handle a Chinese paintbrush and you can draw pictures that the teacher assigns you.  When you are done with your picture and you are finished with every detail your picture will be hanging in the main hallway where everyone can see your picture and how good you have done.  The teacher is Mr.Xie.
