The Me To We club at Dewson has organized a penny drive. We have already started collecting.
Here is a bit of information from Me To We:
The penny is going out of circulation! Help provide clean water for one person for their WHOLE LIFE by bringing in your pennies.
Each class has be given a special penny bag. Each bag can hold 25$ (or 2500 pennies) which is enough to provide clean drinking water to one person for THEIR WHOLE LIFE! Free the Children has Adopt a Village towns all over the world (i.e. Kenya, Haiti, India) where our money will be going to provide clean water for those who do not have clean water.

Today, every Area 24 reader is bringing home a brand new book to keep! The book is called "J'ai perdu mon chat", and it is a gift from the Canadian Children's Book Centre. We have read the book together so we know what it's about, and hopefully you can have fun reading it over and over at home too!
I'd also like to let you know that I updated the link to Stories with Sam, so that it immediately goes into my account. You should see "Bonjour Tamara!" in the speech bubble when you click on the link. Then, click on Histoires, and select one of the movie stories from either side of the screen. They are quite short, but nicely animated. There's a cute Christmas one up there right now! Enjoy!
