Fiesta

Dear families,
      Thank you so much for the food items for our fiesta.  It was greatly appreciated by all involved. The students had a great time!  The class invited Mrs. Griswold's class and other elementary teachers to the fiesta.  In the morning, Senora Blanco taught the third graders how to make tortillas and cheese quesadillas as part of our fiesta.  The students turned our classroom into a festive place for a fiesta. We had table cloths and deorative paper plates and napkins.  Each student also had  a candy cane, chocolate candy and an orange at their place setting.  In the afternoon the students made Mexican yarn art pictures.  Another Mexican craft they made was God's Eyes.
Here are the students following comments about the fiesta:

I enjoyed the punch and the chocolate.  And I enjoyed well, pretty much everything.  I saw my favorite teachers, Mrs. Hoffman, Miss Decker and Mrs. Guenther.
