HOLDAY MOVIE TIME- Yes, Virginia
We read the original letter published in the 1897 New York Sun by Virginia O’ Hanion and the editor’s reply.  Then, will watch “Yes, Virginia” and short video from Macy’s.  We will then discuss the Macy’s “Believe” campaign.  You will write a friendly and/or persuasive letter to Santa Claus.  Your letter will be delivered by Mrs. Shipman to the Macy’s Mailbox at the Parks Mall.  Macy’s will donate $1 to the Make a Wish Foundation for every letter received. Mrs. Shipman will also take a picture of each class using the Macy’s Believe-o-Magic  app for the school website.
