Our Chocolate Sale!

Class Journalists Ruby and Parker reporting: We have gone around the fifth grade asking students chocolate questions... You may be asking, "What do you mean 'chocolate questions?!" Well, we mean ABOUT OUR 5th GRADE CHOCOLATE SALES!!!!

A boy in 5-301, Esteban has sold six boxes. We learned that some of the boxes were sold by his mom at work.  His favorite customer when he is selling the box himself is his sister. Esteban's favorite box is blue because it sells much better than the other ones.

A boy in our class 5-316 named Dylan hadn't sold as many as Esteban, but its all in the fundraising spirit!!! Dylan sold 19 bars and most of them were to the nurses at the doctors office. Dylan's favorite box is the blue box (the one with just chocolate) he likes this box because it called the chocolate sale and that box has just chocolate. Dylan was excited because he saw all of the other fifth graders sell when he was in the lower grades and it looked pretty fun to him.

As you can see here down below is class 5-316's chart of the percentage that we have sold (its not updated so we have a lot more than just twenty percent.) We are not doing so bad in chocolate sales, we are in third place,out of six classes. Here are the scores: Class 5-301= 32%, 5-302= 18%, 5-306=5%, 5-307= 21%, 5-309= 17%, and our class 5-316= 20%. those are the(non-updated) scores of the chocolate sales...and now onto more interviews!!!! 


Abby, a girl in 5-302, has sold so far 58 chocolates and going on to her next box. She says that her favorite costumer is her parents because they have bought the most. Her favorite  box is the blue one because she does not like the gummy bears and chocolate raisins.

Damien, a boy in 5-306, has sold so far 1 1/2 boxes. His favorite customer is himself because he has bought a lot. His favorite box is the blue one because that is the only one he has sold so far. He said, "I am happy now that i am a fifth grader because i am one of the bigger kids now." Bigger kid = bigger chocolate sales!

Another person interviewed was Kenny ,he has sold 6 or 7 boxes!!! His favorite customers are the people at his mom's job. His favorite box is the red one because of the gummy bears. Kenny also said that he was excited because he got to unleash his inner awesomeness. (really "humble" am I right)

The last person interviewed was Aya, she sold 5 boxes, to her neighbor and her Grammy. Her favorite box is the green one because, the chocolate in that box sells for more money, and when things are more expensive people think that those things are better. Aya was excited because she liked selling "stuff". 

For those of you who are reading this and are not in fifth grade we hope that you enjoyed this article and we wish you luck when the year comes that you will be selling chocolate as well.
