Traditional America Song: This Land is Your Land
Nov 27th
California, USA
This week, the focus will be traditional songs.
Mrs. Yollis’ class will kick off the week with a famous American folksong,
This Land is Your Land
by Woody Guthrie.
The words are below if you’d like to sing along!
Chorus:
This land is your land, this land is my land
From California, to the New York Island
From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters
This land was made for you and me
As I was walking a ribbon of highway
I saw above me an endless skyway
I saw below me a golden valley
This land was made for you and me
This land is your land, this land is my land
From California, to the New York Island
From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters
This land was made for you and me
What do you think of when you listen or sing this song?
We sang the song a cappella (ah ku pel uh) which means it was sung without a musical accompaniment.
Do you play an instrument that could have accompanied our song?
Favorite Recess Game: California
Nov 23rd
Our recess post is a little late! Better late than never! 
California, USA
A favorite recess game at our school is called
Bamboo!
Here is a video demonstrating how the game is played.
(Beverly loves to watch Bamboo, but Panda prefers to eat it!)
Would you like to play Bamboo?
Do you have any unusual equipment at your school that has lead to a new game?

How are our lunches the same? Do you see any differences?

A Typical School Day in California
Oct 27th
We so enjoyed Mr. Salsich’s class slide show and Mrs. Watson’s video! We are excited to share a typical California day with our new friends!
We are a suburban community with a school population of about 600 students. In our class, we have 25 third graders, a helpful mascot named Panda, and a large bear named Beverly who is barely awake most days! Our teacher is Mrs. Yollis, and she has been teaching students at our school for twenty-five years!
We started school on August 24 and the year ends on June 12.
