Hello to all TwoFish participants.

Last week at TwoFish, Lori decided to help organise the costumes and Kamen helped to organise some games in the classroom.

Gery wrote a story about her day in the mountains and the participants are really enjoying the ideas that Lora and Deyan are giving to the newsletter. Nino, Lily and Maria have given a challenge to all TwoFish participants and Ivan made a video about a motorised cleaning machine he made in class.

I am taking suggestions for books to buy for the classroom and we’ve another Christmas song included in this week’s newsletter. Maybe you’d enjoy singing it and making a video for the newsletter?  

By the way, if you’re interested in adding ideas to the newsletter, please click here for more information.

That’s all from me and the newsletter team, see you in your next class.

This week’s riddle

What is always coming, but never actually arrives?

See the answer at the bottom of the page.

Feature story

This was written by Gery.

I’m Gery and I am ten years old. I was in the mountains and I took some photos there. It was pleasant  in the mountains because of the snow.

This snow looks like a piece of cake. The snow had turned into crystals and this was the cake topping.

The sun stood right between the trees and that was very interesting. There are amazing views in the mountains.

А little pine was frozen in the snow and it seemed like someone had spent hours making it. It was amazing and I was impressed.

The trees had formed a hole and the sun was passing through it, onto the snow. It was a very beautiful view.

Somewhere in the classroom, the key is hidden. If you can say the words, you will get a clue where to find it.

If you can find the key and open the treasure chest, there are some treats inside.

This is a great song. Maybe you can sing along?

Have a holly jolly Christmas
It’s the best time of the year
Well I don’t know if there’ll be snow
But have a cup of cheer
