September/ October
Our class has made papiermache lanterns, and painted and decorated them. We will celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival. We are also learning about the Solar System. We read Chinese poems about the moon, the sun, stars, planets, and the clouds.

In October, Mrs. Tom helped us make pins for Halloween. First, we choose what we wanted to make. Our choices were a ghost, a cat and a pumpkin. Then, we glued the picture onto the pins. Of course, we needed to add the mouths, ears, eyes and noses. Then we waited for the glue to dry.

We liked them a lot. ( pictures ) Alexander's dad came too. He let us play with dradles. After, he gave us chocolate coins. He also has a menorah that looks like a tree. (pictures )

Our class went to the zoo. We waited there a while. Two ladies led us see lots of animals. Then we went to eat our lunch, and went to the park and play. After, we went to the gift shop to buy things. Then we went back to our school.
