Dec. 16th

This week we took a math test on Graphs and one on Money. There are a few children still working on passing the money test.

We invited David’s mom to come in and tell us about Germany and Norway because she had lived in both places for a few years. We were excited to learn about the castles and the fjords. We also liked the yummy German cookies and to hear the Norwegian language. We found out that we could call our Christmas Store a Flea Market. We also had a feast from different foods from Europe. The favorite was spaghetti and the least favorite was sauerkraut. We also wrote a letter to Santa letting him know of our wants and needs and why we deserve them. You may read them in the hall along with our research on different European traditions.

For part of our class Christmas Party we are going to decorate edible Christmas Trees. I will supply the sugar cones and frosting but would appreciate help with small candy like M&M’s, Skittles, Nerds, Gum Drops Etc.  If you wish to donate please have them at our class by the 21^st so I know what I need to purchase. Our class would really appreciate any donation for this activity.

For our school Christmas sing we would like the entire second grade to dress up in their best clothes and if they want they can wear a Santa hat.
