Week in Review!
Globetrot Scott has given us the BEST weeks in December! Thus far, we have learned about the following countries:
USA
France
Germany
Netherlands
Italy
Sweden
We'll be visiting China, Russia, and India and then we will wrap up with Australia, Japan, Uganda, Israel, and Ethiopia at our Holiday Market!

We learned that students in Italy write secret napkin notes to their grown-ups to celebrate the holidays.
"Dear Mom and Dad, I love you so much that my heart's filled with love from your love."

"Dear Mom and Dad, I love you more than infinity!"

We learned that in Italy, students celebrate with a WITCH! 

In Sweden, kiddos sometimes run across a Tomten!
We also filled our stomachs with yummy, buttery buns sent to us from Globetrot Scott!

We found out that there is also a wonderful tradition called "Boxing Day!" It's like musical chairs but with a gift that has been wrapped over and over!
 We played it in our classroom...
Everyone was VERY excited at first... 

Then everyone showed their frustration for how many times that silly gift was wrapped :)


The anticipation...
The reveal!
We got our own copy of Frosty for the classroom.

We have been working hard on Measurement and Data in Math.
We finished our week with a fun day of telling the class, "I mustache you a question!" in order to graph our answers.








FIVE MORE DAYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
