Dear Readers,
This afternoon we went to the computer lab to type our power point slides for our solar system part that we were suppose to have information. Next, we went to make a special gift for our parents. Shshshsh, we are not suppose to tell anyone yet.
Some of us need to find more information about our solar system part. We are going to start our photo story on Wednesday for those who are ready with their science information. Our Christmas couplets are coming along. And our angel puzzle looks pretty.

A.V.C.
Dear Readers,
Today we had A.V.C. classes such as art and Spanish. In art, we made pictures of the middle ages. In Spanish, we received our quiz back. What good work we did on it ! Then we watched a movie in Spanish about a little boy who wanted a Christmas tree and a dinosaur. Finally, we got to color our Santa Clause picture and sing Feliz Navidad.

Trip to Mars
These are some pictures of who we saw on our trip to Mars today. One thing the scientists said when we were on our trip was if you make a mistake to learn from it and try again and do it differently. Girls are needed to work on space projects as much as boys are needed. Sally Ride was one female astronaut they mentioned. N.A.S.A. needs us!
Interesting Events
Dear Readers,
Today Charlie wrote back to us and told us that he is older than a sea turtle. We need to find out how old a sea turtle can be. We saw a movie about Our Lady of Guadalupe. It is her feast day today. She appeared to Juan Diego in Guadalupe, Mexico in the year 1531. Check our paper out tonight that is all about that story.
We are continuing to learn about advent. Today we put a picture of a temple on the Jesse tree. Ask us about that story. In the gym we had an advent prayer service.
We took a short trip to Mars. Ask us what we learned. We met an astronaut. Then we wrote about our planet on the computer. Our photo story is started!

An Exciting Day
Dear Readers,
Today we learned about St. Nicholas and received candy from him. How exciting it was for us when we heard the bells!
Jerry, the cafeteria elf, brought his wife, but he didn't come today. Charlie, our elf, was still on the flag when we got to the classroom but then he moved to the back of the room when we went to 2A's room for the St. Nicholas movie.
When we did our math, we used our Math Copy Book.After our Math Copy Book, girls that were done practiced on I.X.L. and First in Math on the net books. Then we practiced our cursive uti connected together in our Handwriting workbook. After lunch we went to dance and then listened to a story about how Santa got his job which was very funny.

Elf Magic
Dear Readers,
Today Charlie, the elf, pinned himself to the bulletin board to hold himself on the flag. The elf in the cafeteria, Jerry, was sitting on the spoon dispenser and flew inside the light and broke it when he came down. The elves were very active!
We learned how to connect cursive u to cursive i and cursive t. In religion we made an Advent Wreath to hand in the hallway.

Our, Interesting, Awesome-Fun Day
Dear Readers,
Today we learned about amphibians. Amphibians include salamanders, toads, and frogs. We learned that amphibians can adapt to live anywhere. The live webcast from the Smithsonian National Zoo taught us about these amphibians. What fun we had learning about amphibians through the computer with real biologists!
We began our day with coloring an Advent Wreath. In math, we played a place value game that we are going to show our parents how to play tonight.
In our classroom, we have a new friend called Charlie the Elf on the Shelf. He brought his Christmas friends like some snowmen, Santa, a Christmas frog, a tree, and JOY snowmen. We have snow on top of our classroom closets and perhaps that is why Charlie came back this year.

A Good Day
Dear Readers,
We had a good day today because we got along together at lunch recess. Madigan lost her tooth. We took two parts of our math assessment and some of us enjoyed it. Our notes to Charlie the Elf were written after our math assessments. And in religion class we heard a story from the Old Testament about Moses. Ask us about it tonight. What a fun day it was!

Lessons Learned
Dear Readers,
Today we learned how to write cursive t's. At gym time, we played our game together very well. When we went to lunch recess in the gym, some second graders did not feel included in the games because some of the girls have little groups, or clubs. Miss Murnane reminded the second graders that there are no clubs during recess. Everyone should be included.
Jesus reminded us today in our religion book that there is a Great Commandment. This commandment tells us to love God and others. We need to remember to love others as we love ourselves. Maybe when we read our religion book pages 108-109 tonight we will remember what love looks like and sounds like.When we love Jesus first, then others and ourselves last, it spells JOY!
In Math we described what equal looks like and what not equal looks like. We also had some Spelling City fun with our consonant clusters. We like our blog and look forward to any comments you make.

Today We Learned
Dear Readers,
Today we learned how to connect cursive i's. We also learned how to solve word problems using the strategy called reasonable answer. First thing this morning we made a poster about the two parts of the Bible. Ask us about those parts so we can share what we learned! We read a story and practiced spelling and finally we discovered that there are craters on the moon and why they were made. We can tell you more about the moon after school today.
