Ms. Falcone’s 2nd graders watch the live cam at the San Diego Zoo in California every day during snack. We have become fascinated by the panda bear who “Chows” down while we eat. The class named the panda Chow Chow. We wrote letters to the zoo asking the zookeeper questions about the panda. The letters are headed off in the mail all the way to California hoping for a reply.

Bluestreak Adopt-A-Yearbook is HERE and in its FIRST YEAR! The Chisholm High School Yearbook Team is offering an adopt-a-student program, a scholarship program for students who cannot purchase a yearbook. Please help us spread the word. Businesses, organizations, or individuals who would like to participate in the program can donate the base cost of one or more book(s), $75 (this includes taxes) to the school yearbook program, and the money is used to purchase a yearbook for a student in need. Seniors with special circumstances or hardships are given priority, and then we go down the list by grade level and financial need. We keep this information confidential, and administration helps with the selection process. If you or your organization would like to adopt a student, please contact the yearbook adviser at tvake@chisholm.k12.mn.us or 218-421-8057. This program is Cash or Check ONLY and online orders will not work. Thank you so very much for your continued support of our program. If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Vake. Go Bluestreaks!

Part 2 We learned some history of the cornucopia, did a ripped paper art project to create cornucopia placemats, and then created a yummy cornucopia with Bugles, frosting, and Trix cereal. Happy Thanksgiving!
