The Potlach

Yesterday we had a party in the classroom called a potlach. The teacher based it on the native American tradition of one tribe celebrating the family's wealth and success. They told all the people in their village to come and celebrate with them. We learned all this in social studies and we had our own. We brought in chips and drinks for every one to share and Ms. Evens our teacher assitant made chocolate brownies. That was fun. Today was good there were no problems at all today, which I'm thankful for. We also have fund raisers for the school. The one we had for Thanks Giving was really big they had all kinds of sweets. I got a slice of cake and that was it for me. I hope tomorrow is going to be a good day.
