GREAT JOB!!!

MANNERS DAY!

On the day of our Thanksgiving lunch at school, we had "Manners Day."  We came to school all dressed up, and learned about and practiced manners!  Some girls were so lucky...they got to do it twice, with two different partners, because we have so many more boys than girls!

The first task was the boys had to help pull out chairs and seat the girls.  The girls had to always demonstrate their gratitude with each task . . . thank you.

We also learned two ways to open a door...the regular way, and a door with a crash bar.

Learning to properly introduce people was another skill.

We ate our Thanksgiving lunch in the classroom.  For those who chose to stay in for recess, not knowing what the last task was...were greatly rewarded.  We played, "Please pass the candy!"

OUR AFRICAN MASKS FOR ART NIGHT

Mr. Francis, our art teacher, helped us make African masks for our Art Night.  First, we cut a milk jug in half, then taped it all over with itty, bitty pieces of masking tape.  Then we painted, and decorated.

Our masks hung with the other 5th graders.

The 5th and 6th grades sang the song that was written for the World Cup Soccer.

Kwasi, a 6th grader from Africa (left), and Kofi played the drums.

The gym looked fantastic for our Art Night!  The 6th grade had made African animal pictures that hung from the ceiling.

Each class made a flag for the event.

Lots of people attended our program!  Thanks to all who helped!
