Wakko’s State Song Inspires Student

Picture
Most third grade students do not like to memorize facts and figures. Oriet Hemenway is an exception. When she was a third grader she saw a segment on television that inspired her to not only memorize the state capitals, but utilize that information again in the sixth grade. The program featured a pretend segment of the show “Jeopardy.” The double Jeopardy question was naming the capitals. Wakko, the character, sang the song and then lost because he did not phrase it as a question. The little character may have lost but it made a huge impact on Oriet.

An honor student at Montross Middle School, Oriet loves to challenge herself every day. She said that learning the capitals to music was fun. “It’s easier when put to music,” she observed. That curiosity helps her in her studies. An “A” student, Oriet strives to make perfect scores. When asked what she would do on a perfect day, Oriet did not have the set answer most children give. Oreit stated that she would “run for president, win money, get 100 in every single class, have everyone get along in her world, and get a self-portrait back from Cople.” Oh, and have an “animal shelter for all animals.”

She hasn’t any particular favorite subject, but loves them all equally, especially Math. Oreit describes her mind as a “jumble of information.” She hopes to do something in the future that utilizes all of her interests, including performing arts or criminology. Oreit would love to go to one of the gifted summer schools, like the Johns Hopkins program, but hasn’t been able to find a scholarship for such as program.

The lyrics from WAKKO’s America are available below. With enough practice, everyone can now easily learn the names of all the capitals. [WAKKO's America]

David Lemke Named District 
Spelling Champ

Picture
It took 53 words and 8 rounds before a winner was declared for the Westmoreland County Public Schools’ spelling bee district championship. At the end of the evening, fifth grader, David Lemke, from Washington District Elementary School, sealed his victory by spelling correctly the final word of the night, “perfectionism.” 

The runner-up was fourth grader, Kelsey Henry, also from Washington District Elementary School. Mr. Lemke will now prepare for the regional contest in Fredericksburg.
