Go A.P. Jaguars!!!

JASPER SAYS: It was cool at A.P. Giannini Step Up Night. First the school band played. They played Michael Jackson, Pirates of the Caribbean, and two other songs I didn't know. I signed up for band. Then, the Principle and some of the teachers talked. After that we went down to where they were selling the A. P. Giannini gear and I got sweatpants and a sweatshirt. The A. P. Giannini mascot is the Jaguar. I think A. P. Giannini is going to be a good school for me.

Crazy Hair Day 2010


SILAS SAYS: Crazy hair day was a really fun day because I wore this really giant, red, afro wig. See, look at the picture above.

JASPER SAYS: It is Spirit Week at our school this week. The first day of spirit week is rainbow day,the second day is called crazy hair day, the third day is called sports day, the fourth day is called twin day, the fifth day is called pajama day. Today was crazy hair day. My favorite spirit day is crazy hair day. I always do crazy hair day. Every one at school was trying to give me candy or money for some of my hair spray. The hair spray colors I had were pink, purple, and green. I had a fun time at crazy hair day.

Fine Art at the De Young


JASPER SAYS: I was really happy when my mask got picked to be in the De Young Museum. My art has been the De Young once before, I drew a Frida Kahlo. To make my mask I looked at a photograph and drew the photograph. Then I made the mask out of ceramics and it got heated up in the kiln. Then I painted the mask with glaze. The colors I put on my mask were blue and yellow. I think I did a good job on my mask.

Sushi Chefs


JASPER SAYS: The homemade that we made was pretty good. My favorite kind of sushi is California rolls, but we did not have that kind of sushi. When Amy was in Japan she bought a sushi roller and really good seaweed, so we could make sushi. I think sushi is a really good food and easy to make.

SILAS SAYS: The sushi was really fancy and nice, but I did not really like it that much. So, for dinner I had 3/4 broccoli and 1/4 sushi.

Historical Documents


JASPER SAYS: Thank you so much, Lars ,for the Asterix and Obelix books. I read them all in 2 days. I really liked reading the first one because I could now read them all in order from the beginning. Asterix and Obelix are my favorite comic book series. (These are the same comic books that you and my dad read when you were kids!)



SILAS SAYS: Asterix and Obelix are the best comic books. Thank you for for sending seven Asterix and Obelix to us. So far I have read five Asterix and Obelix in 3 or 4 weeks.
