“Art. This week we did art. We did a type of art that makes things out of birch bark. We made hand bags, little canoes and other things too. It was very interesting and fun. You would get wet bark and shape it into things. I thought it was going to be hard but it wasn’t at all. It’s easier than you think. The original plan was to do it outside but it was too windy so we did it in the hallway. I used a whittling knife and others used a pair of scissors but I didn’t make anything because I couldn’t get the right shape. The End.”-Joseph

“This week we learned how to play a new game called Fermi, Pico, Nada. It is really fun! Here is how to play: you pick one person to pick a number, it is best if it has 2 or more digits, the person chose has to have something to write with and something to right on. The person chosen must draw as many squares as there are digits on what they are writing on. Write, Fermi, Pico, Nada on top. Fermi means correct number, correct spot. Pico means correct number, wrong spot. Nada means wrong number, wrong spot. Have the other people guess numbers. The chosen person rate them. For example if your number is 132 and the person guessed 256 you go NNP or PNN or NPN. It is really fun!”-Nina

“Indigenous People’s day! On Monday, it will be indigenous people’s day. We are going to Mad Tom to celebrate. A few years ago it was called Columbus Day. They changed it to indigenous people’s day because Columbus was a cruel person and he does not deserve his own holiday. We are all reading a chapter of a book called A People’s History of the United States. We are reading a chapter about Columbus and the indigenous people, the Arawaks. Columbus boated all the way from Spain to what he thought was India but was actually America. He thought he was in India soooooo he called them Indians. Columbus was sent there by the king and queen of Spain to give them gold. Columbus and his men did not find any gold so he took the indigenous people on a boat back to Spain to sell them. The indigenous people were very welcoming to Columbus but Columbus wanted them for slaves. All in all, we are happy the United States does not have slavery anymore.”-Rebecca
