Day two of our travels was to another warm climate-Mexico. We learned that:
1. They celebrate Christmas for 9 days.
2. The three kings bring gifts in Mexico
3. They celebrate with pinatas
4. The poinsettia comes from Mexico.
5. Feliz Navidad means Merry Christmas.
To remember our time we made a poinsettia and sang Feliz Navidad.

We started with Australia.

2. Children leave Santa lemonade and cake.
3. Christmas happens in the summer.
4. Children hunt for golden beetles.
5. Santa leaves presents in a pillow case or at a table
We made a surf board to remember our time in Australia.

Making class books is one of our favorite things we do in the Octopus class. It is so fun to connect our pictures with similar print in the stories we are reading. Naturally that means its time to turn into dinos and give a big ROAR!
