The Bill of Rights, not Lefts!

Starfish,

We've been studying The Bill of Rights in class. Click HERE and you can view an original copy of the actual document signed in 1789!! Wow! Look around our classroom and see versions of The Bill of Rights in French, Spanish and German.

We've been through the first ten amendments to the United States Constitution. Which of the amendments do you think is the most important? Why? Leave me a comment for some bonus points!

Holiday Wishes

Dear Starfish,

The holiday season is here! Whether you are celebrating Hanukah, Christmas, or Kwanzaa (or even not celebrating at all, that's okay too!) the best part of any holiday is making wishes! You might wish for a gift, like an ipod or a skateboard. You might wish for someone else, for your friend to heal their broken heart or for your parents to find happiness. You might even make a wish for the world - that no child goes hungry and no one feels alone.

I am wishing for many things this holiday. I wish that all my Starfish find a great book to read over the break and come back in January ready to share new books with me! I wish for all my Starfish to remember to bring a pen or pencil every day. I wish for all my Starfish and their families to have a happy and safe holiday.

What are you wishing???
