Dear Gefen Parents,

This week our special Blog person is Maayan.

We did more history pockets in social studies.  We learned about how the Pilgrims were strict parents.   They wanted their children to have manners at the table.  Two examples are:  Stuff not thy mouth to fill thy cheeks and Sing not, hum not, wriggle not. 

We are writing "Realistic Fiction" stories during writing.  We were inspired by a story that Hamorah Janis read before we decided what to write.  The book is called Grandpa's Teeth, it is about a grandpa that blames everyone for stealing his fake teeth.  This was a good way for us to start our new stories.

We are almost finished reading Frindle.  Hopefully, we will finish next week.

We took part in the "Hour of Code" during science this week.  We did a game with Angry Bird where we had to move the bird to the pig using lines of code.

We wish everyone a nice shabbat.  Stay safe during the snow storm.

Best wishes,
Maayan
