My Class Visited North America!

A few months ago, my class visited the map of North America!

National Geographic has a website that allows you to borrow a map. The website is called the Giant Traveling Maps.

We spent a long time making this movie, and my teacher, Mrs. Yollis, and I think it was worth it because it teaches people a lot. Enjoy!

I had a blast on the map!
Thank you Ingrid Hanzer, a member of National Geographic's!

What did you think of the movie?

Do you think it was worth it?

Presents From Australia!:)

On Thursday, one of the blogs my class and I follow, 2KM @ Leopold Primary School, gave Mrs. Yollis, my teacher, a package from 2KM!

She gave us Australian flags, Vegemite, a book called Possum Magic, and lessons that go with it!

You can find out more about it at Mrs. Yollis' blog. Click here to visit her blog!

Publishing and Rejecting

If your comment gets PUBLISHED, that means that you had no errors, the right punctuation, and most of all, you gave at least two details about the post you're writing about. Also, if your comment gets rejected, that means that you didn't put in the right punctuation, you didn't capitalize the letter in the beginning of the sentence. Like this: oh your post is great and i love the way you made the post! it's awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That is what you don't want to write in a comment, or else it will get REJECTED, and you don't want that to happen. I think probably at least ten of my comments got published on Mrs. Yollis' blog, and I would say that two got rejected. What my teacher Mrs. Yollis, does is, whenever a comment gets published, the person that sent in that comment sticks a sticker onto a poster.

My Wonderful Teacher!

My teacher, Mrs. Yollis is the best teacher I've ever had! Almost every morning she shows us any new posts she made during that day, and she also shows us the comments too. Whenever we take either multiplication or division tests, she tells us to take a deep breath so it will calm us down, and I usually get all of the answers right ! She even taught me how to make this blog. Right now we are learning how to write cursive, and she helps us by telling us which letter is the best. Also, she lets us pick which ones we like. I love my teacher!

Trophies

These are all of my trophies so far. The bowling one in the back is from my birthday party in a bowling alley. I like the trophy with the huge basketball the most because the ball spins, but the air does NOT spin it. That was my first season of basketball when I got that trophy. I love all of my trophies! My favorite sport is soccer because you use your feet, and not your hands so your hands are free. I played two sports for at least four seasons. One of my team names were the Soccer Stars. I liked the name because the sport was soccer, and that is sound like we're really stars in my opinion. No, I did not pick the name with my teammates. As you can see, I have four trophies including one metal.

I Love Hanukah!

I'm really sad because Hanukah is over. I know that it will come next year, but I really want it now! Forgetting about Hanukah is what I am never going to do. I also know that there are other holidays, but I love Hanukah more than anything. Lighting the menorah, receaving presents is what I can not get away from. I always sing songs to remind me of how hard it was for the jews back then, and feel bad for them. Here's the song I sing that reminds me of that time. Here it goes:


Hanukah oh Hanukah come light the menorah. Let's have a party we'll all dance the horah. Gather around the table we'll give you a treat. Seveevans to play with, and latkahs to eat. And while we are playing the candles are burning low. One for each night. They shed a sweet light to remind us of days long ago. 2 times. One for each night they shed a sweet light to remind us of days long ago oh oh oh 4 times.


I also watch a movie called Full Court Merical. It is such a fantastic movie!


It's all about this boy who plays basketball, and the team and himself think they suck. One day when they are playing basketball, they spot a guy that is really good in that sport, so the boy goes up to him and asks him what his name is, and he says he won't tell him. That night he and one of his friends research to find about that guy, and they found that he was a profeshecal basketball player.
You'll have to watch the movie to find out more of what happened. Hope you like it as much as I do! And by the way, it's about Hanukah too!

Challa Making!

Here in this picture, my brother Itai is mixing flour with water to make challa (bread that we eat on Friday nights) because it was shabbot that night. Speaking of challa makes me want to eat it right now because just talking about it makes me really hungry! After we make the dough we braid it, and it's really fun too! My brother and I always have fun making the dough.

Do you make challa on Friday nights?
Do you have fun making it like my brother and me?
Does it taste good to you?
