The Queen

"Hear ye Hear ye here comes the Queen." This week on January 6 we had king for a day. But it turned out to be a nice Queen named Anglea. The queen got to make decisions, eat ice cream for lunch, eat candy, have a big desk and comfy chair, and have a crown and a sword and a purple robe. she also got to be first in line. after recess she decreed a snack of candy, salsa, and chips. at the end of the day we opened a pinata and got a lot of candy and we watched a movie. she nominated a girl named Tara second in command. that's the blog for this week.

Three Kings Day

The Wise Men brought gold, frankincense and myrrh to the Child, Jesus.

In Mexico, they celebrate the Magi's visit on January 6!

Inside Mexican bread, a plastic baby (the Child Jesus) is placed. A child who finds the baby, gets to be King or Queen for the day.

I guess Christina didn't find the baby in the Mexican bread.

Judging by Tara's plate, she didn't find the baby either!

No Queen Camila today.
It was Angela who found the baby in the bread!

There's that tiny little plastic baby.

After lunch and recess, Queen Angela requested a snack of tortilla chips and salsa.

To quench her subjects' parched mouths, root beer and ginger ale was brought out.

The Queen on her throne enjoying both beverages - she is the Queen after all!

The Queen also offered bits of chocolate goodness to her people. Yum!

Her reign ended with a pinata celebration that was enjoyed by all!

Before her reign completely ended, Queen Angela dubbed Tara as "Second in Command" (to the surprise of the Emperor - Mrs. Mellette)!!!

Josh with the loot he got from the pinata!

Such a fun day! And, what do we have to look forward to tomorrow: a Spelling Test AND a Pop-Quiz in Social Studies. What a second...I just told you that I'm giving you a Pop-Quiz, so I guess it won't be a surprise! hee hee

The Solar System

This week in the fifth grade we started to learn about the solar system and a little beyond. so far we learned the order of the planets. We also watched a movie on the universe, "Created Cosmos" We learned about the constellations and other suns. Speaking of suns we learned our sun is not the biggest sun out there. The biggest sun is called Betelgeuse and there are blue suns too. Another thing we learned is that the universe and saw that it's really big. That's what we learned this week in science.
