Box Top and Milk Cap Wars...Winners




All second graders received a FREE book from the book fair.  We were the big winners of the Box Top and Milk Cap wars.  Thank you PTO for a wonderful prize!

WOW!


Okay so this week was one that tops the charts!  First, we skyped with our new friends in the United Kingdom and New Zealand.  We learned so many amazing things about them.  We learned that we go to school quite a bit longer each day than they do.  We also learned that the children must wear school uniforms which is very different than us.  Both classes have students that are the same age as us.  However, they have 28-30 kids in their classes and we have only 17.  I told the kids that our classroom would be packed with that many kids.  So neat and we are planning to Skype with both of them again in the near future.  Until then, we will be blogging with them.  Check out the blogs in the side bar and take a look at their schools.


This is a little clip of them asking us if we wear school uniforms.
This is a picture that Mr. Harris took in the United Kingdom.  Amazing!
