French Sports
February 25,2007
The French like sports.
Two popular sports are rugby and soccer. Rugby was created in England in 1823 when Willium Webb Ellis 
grabbed the ball during a game of soccer. Rugby is like soccer but you use your hands.

Soccer began in China in the second century and came to Europe in the 16th century. France won the World Cup in 1998 against Brazil 3-0. France hasn't won since.
Cycling is another of France's favorite sports. The cycle originated in Scottland in 1839. It had a big front wheel 
and a small back wheel.The modern (The chain-drive) cycle was created 1885 by the Scottish. The chain is used to transfer power from the pedals to the wheel. It is used on vehicles like cycles and motorcycles.

Karl,
We really enjoyed your Valentine!! The photos from the aqaurium were unbelievable! We learned so much about the animals from you. It was good timing since we are now reading about the life cycle of frogs and toads. Now we are learning about French Sports.
We hope you are having fun. We are leaving today at 11:30 since an ice storm is heading this way. It has been a crazy weather week.
From, Mrs. Krapfl and your class
Dear Johann,
Will you say HAPPY BIRTHDAY to your grampa? It has been crazy weather this week. It was fun off of school
while it lasted. I was bored so I read.

Hi Johann,

It is so small, it doesn't have its eyes open.
I miss you. Hope to mail you again.

Johann it looked like you were having lots of fun getting burried in sand.
We are learning square dancing in gym. It is a lot of fun for me. Other people think it is stupid.
Love your friend,
