This Week's News from Joss and Taji

Joss got a cast this week! We hope she feels better soon. In music this week, Blake found a song for the third grade recorders. We are going to perform the song at the Spring Festival. We’re practicing the song Blueberry Waltz.


On Thursday we shared our historical fiction stories and books. The stories we have written have characters that we created and they are about the lives of Native Americans. For example, a story can include how the Native Americans hunted and about the Medicine Man and how long they lived. The story does not have to be true and that’s what makes it historical fiction.


Our social studies workshop projects are going well. Everyone finished their tunics and most people are done with their babies. In shop we are making our cradle boards. To make the cradle boards you have to make a huge board and you have to make a foot rest. We also finished our lummi sticks with the burning tools.

Joss is excited about starting her mammal studies. She’s wondering what mammal she’ll write about since platypuses did not live in this area. Taji is looking forward to finishing his baby in social studies workshop.
