In social studies this week we are learning about the middle ages. How life was different, where people lived, how life was different. For this unit the children are allowed to bring in items from their home that are related to this theme. Last year we got a Lego castle. For this unit children are allowed to bring in (blunt) swords as long as they stay in their bags until social studies time.
Today we made a class coat of arms. We talked about them and if you would like to make one for your family here is the website we made our class one on.

If you do make one please print it and send it to school on Monday or Wednesdays to share in social studies time.
