It has been a crazy few weeks since vacation! Grade 3 students at Hope Valley made paper shoes on January 2nd to leave out for the 3 Wise Men. Thankfully, we made them in class on Tuesday and put them out on the window sill, because we didn't have school on Thursday or Friday and Three Kings Day was on Saturday, January 6th. I was VERY nervous that the Three Wise Men wouldn't come because of the snow storm and because I meant to leave them a letter with the shoes on Friday but wasn't able to with the snow day. I was very pleased to arrive at school on Tuesday to find that the Three Wise Men did stop by and left little goodies for the kids! They left stickers, bracelets, and GI Joe figures.
In Spain and many countries around the world, the Christmas season isn't really over until January 6th, when the Three Wise Men/Three Kings (in Spanish, Los Reyes Magos), leave treats in children's shoes that are left by the door. We are extremely lucky that the Three Kings took time out of their busy gift-giving schedule to visit us in Hope Valley. Check out the pictures below from the shoes in Mr. Fanning's and Mrs. Zonfrilli's rooms.
