Final Four

Our book brackets are shrinking! We now have four books left! For the first round we had 8o votes and this last round we had 54 votes. I wonder how many votes we will get this round? The four books are: Insignificant Events In The Life Of A Cactus versus Wonder and Save Me A Seat versus The War That Saved My Life

Las Fallas

This week we had la crema wich was on March 19 where we burned our fallas. Fallas are paper mache figures. Every year in Spain people make gigantic fallas and then burn them on la crema with huge controlled fires and sing Valencia the song. Some of the fallas are taller than the buildings! People dress up (fallaras), march, and eat paella. Our fallas were small and the fire was a campfire. We even had an amazing paella which is a traditional food with rice sometimes meat and peppers and other goodies. It was so yummy! Ami and Harper

March Madness Book Brackets Round 1

In the spirit of March Madness, we created a bracket where a champion will be decided. Which book will become the champion? Our class talks about books all the time. We read a lot and share the books we like with each other. We think a bracket of books will be fun and we want you to vote too! During the next few weeks we will give book chats in class about the books we know and we will vote on what book is the best. Our votes and your votes will decide the winner.  Emile and Diego  These are the titles! Down below you will see our ballot and you can help us vote! VOTE HERE Loading...
