This week at school we learned a new math game. It is called Hundreds of Horses. It is really fun. This is how you play. First you spin the spinner and then you roll the dice. You add as many hundreds as the number on the dice. The first one to get three in a row wins.

Today we got our parts for our play. It is called A Pirate Christmas. I am a pirate called Green Beard. I didn't want to be Green Beard. I wanted to be the Captain Pirate and the girl who got it is really nice but it felt like she was bragging.

Two days ago we watched a movie called Rio to get into the theatre. We had to bring a canned food item or some dollars. All of the money and food was given to the FCC food drive called Drive Away Hunger.

Yesterday we started to make a PowerPoint about ourselves. PowerPoint is a program where you can make a slide show on any topic you want. It is really cool!

We made birch tree paintings. Birch trees are white and when some of the bark peels off it turns the section brown or black. To make the painting you have to put ripped pieces of masking tape on a white piece of paper. Then you paint the background, the middle ground and the foreground and when it is dry we peel off the tape and draw on the trees.
