Last week on Thursday, December 17,2015 It was Polar Express day for my class. First we would watch the movie The polar express while wearing our pajamas while lying down on a blanket if  you brought one and the teacher and the volunteers would pass out plates of food in. The morning and if you wanted to you could have hot chocolate with marshmallows or not. After that my class would make a snowball catapult. Here is how my class and I would first optionally give the front of the cup a snow man face and poke or cut a hole into the bottom of the cup. Then the volunteers would come around and put a balloon over the top and the balloon was tied then cut in half. Here is how the catapult worked: you would pull on the knot that was on the balloon and it would launch something light or heavy but to be honest at night that same day it broke so I made a new one without a face that was plastic because foam cups are horrible when it comes to making catapults. Then after that before recess there were five games and five groups which would rotate around and take turns to play a game. The first game my group, group A would play with the snowball catapult and launch cotton balls onto snowmen that were drawn on paper And we would get points this game was called snowball launcher. Next my group played a game called snowball fight which didn't include the catapults. In this game there would be lots of crumpled up balls where there were two teams and the teams would try to get all the crumpled balls to the other team. Next we played pin the red nose on Rudolph where we were blindfolded and we tried to pin the red nose in the circle. Next my group played a game called marshmallow stacking where you use a straw and suck the marshmallow up and stacked them on top of each other. Then the recess bell rung so we would go play for fifteen minutes. Then we did some math and went to music class and then we ate lunch and then the groups had to play the games that they didn't do. My group's last game was Candy-cane hooks where there are a lot of  candy canes and you can only use one hand to hold the hook or the first Candy-cane and try to get the rest of the candy canes hooked onto the lead candy cane. Then my class did a word search which my friend Allison and I did together. Last my class said some extra free play and guess what I did, I played snowball fight and or teacher was the timer. Last the bell rung and Fiona broke up with means now I practically hate her.
