Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins

Today we read Hershel and the Hanukkah Goblins. It was a very good book. It's about a man named Hershel that saves Hanukkah because every night of Hanukkah goblins come. For example a little goblin that's purple with bat wings. Also there's another goblin and he's fat and is much bigger than the little goblin. The little goblin was scared because Hershel was taking an egg and crushing it and he's pretending it is a rock. Hershel lights the candle because the little goblin let him.  The second goblin was fat and he loved pickles but he got his hand stuck in the pickle jar. The third goblin had a fiery red face and a snake as it's tail. They were playing dreidel but the goblin lost all of his gold. More nights came and there were goblins that looked scary. The last night of Hanukkah the goblin king came and Hershel tricked him into lighting all the candles and the spell was broken so Hershel saved Hanukkah.

Government

town  council

Yesterday our  class  was learning about the mayor and the town council. Brianna was one of the town councilwomen and our friend Andrew was the mayor. We learned  that the mayor does not work alone. He or she has special workers called the town council. The town council helps the mayor make decisions. So that's what a mayor and town council does.
