What Was
Not on the Menu
Surprisingly, the
following foods, all considered staples
of the modern Thanksgiving meal, didn't
appear on the pilgrims's first feast
table:
Ham: There is no
evidence that the colonists had
butchered a pig by this time, though
they had brought pigs with them from
England.
Sweet Potatoes/Potatoes:
These were not common.
Corn on the Cob: Corn
was kept dried out at this time of year.
Cranberry Sauce: The
colonists had cranberries but no sugar
at this time.
Pumpkin Pie: It's not a
recipe that exists at this point, though
the pilgrims had recipes for stewed
pumpkin.
Chicken/Eggs: We know
that the colonists brought hens with
them from England, but it's unknown how
many they had left at this point or
whether the hens were still laying.
Milk: No cows had been
aboard the Mayflower, though it's
possible that the colonists used goat
milk to make cheese.

Who is a Veteran? |
 Veterans
are people who served in the military (U.S. Army, Navy, Marine
Corps, Air Force, and Coast Guard) in times of war or peace.
Who do you know who is
a veteran?
Maybe it is your mother,
father, sister, brother, aunt, uncle, grandfather, grandmother,
cousin, neighbor, or teacher. You can be very proud of them. Many
have given much to keep us safe and free.
Many people confuse
Memorial Day and Veterans Day. Do you know the
difference?
Memorial Day is a day for remembering and honoring those who
died serving their country.
On a Veterans Day we thank and honor those who served in the
military. Veterans Day is observed on November 11th of each year.
This day used to be called Armistice Day.

Principal David Schulte arranged for
Little Obie to visit Sandoval Elementary School on November 29th.
Little Obie is a miniature Canadian National Locomotive along with
accompanying flat car and caboose. CN’s All Aboard for Safety train, Obie,
is a six-foot high, scale model of a CN locomotive.
http://www.cn.ca/en/community-obie.htm Mr. Larry Niederhofer,
conductor and Mark Schmale, safety presenter are employees representing the
CN Railroad along with Little Obie and were definitely the center of
attention at Sandoval Elementary. Each of the students had the opportunity
to ride on Little Obie after their Safety Presentation.
Little Obie,
the brainchild of former employee Paul Rose, is a scale model of a CN
locomotive, complete with a flatcar and caboose. He was designed and built
in CN's Memphis, Tennessee facility. The success of this program is due to
CN employees who keep a busy schedule with Little Obie, conducting
educational programs at schools, parades, county fairs and other community
events in CN communities in Canada and the U.S.
The main purose of Little Obie is to each
children and adults about railroad crossing safety. “Operation lifesaver”
is a nation wide program dedicated to safety around trains and especially at
railroad crossings. Every major railroad in North America participates and
endorses this program. If just one life can be saved or injury prevented
from a single appearance by Little Obie, the goal of “Operation Lifesaver”
has been fulfilled.
Wherever Little Obie and its crew go, the
message is the same…Look!
Listen! And Live!
Go visit Little Obie and his friends on
the All Aboard For Safety link at
http://www.cn.ca/en/community-obie.htm. You will find Obie’s fun games,
stories and travel for kids and adults.
Little Obie with conductor Larry Niederhofer Mark Schmale talking about railroad crossing safety. We've been working for the Railroad ....... Thanks for your help.

Airman Visits Sandoval School
TSgt. Mendi Graham visits Mrs. Adam's
6th graders during Social Studies class.
TSgt Mendi Graham, currently
stationed at Camp H.M. Smith Marine Corps Base in Hawaii, spoke to the sixth
grade Social Studies class at Sandoval Elementary about the opportunities in
the military. She also showed slides of Air Force Operations in Iraq.
Students saw pictures of the land and people of Iraq, which they had
recently studied. They also saw that the military has many kinds of jobs
which appeal to almost any interest that they may have.
TSgt Graham is home (Odin) visiting
family and her mother, Marilyn Gimbel that works at Sandoval Elementary as
the Computer Applications Specialist. Mendi and her husband, Rick and son,
Keelan have had the opportunity to be stationed in Alaska, Guam, Germany, &
Hawaii during the last 12 years. Mendi will spend 3 more years in
Hawaii as the Personal Protocol for the Admiral of US Pacific Command.
TSgt. Mendi Graham talks about her military career.

Centralia Sunrise Rotary Donates Student Dictionaries
The Centralia Sunrise Rotary donated student
dictionaries to our third grade students. Mr. George Hinton, a member of
this organization, came to Sandoval Elementary School and made the
presentation to our third grade classrooms. This program is a worldwide
organization of business and professional leaders that provides humanitarian
service, encourages high ethical standards in all vocations, and helps build
goodwill and peace in the world.
is a 501(c) (3)
nonprofit organization. The goal of this program is to assist all students
in completing the school year as good writers, active readers and creative
thinkers by providing students with their own personal dictionary. The
dictionaries are a gift to each student to use at school and at home for
years to come. The Dictionary Project gives 95 cents of every dollar donated
toward the purchase of dictionaries.
Reading is the most important skill of all.
It is the starting point for all the economic and social opportunities this
world has to offer. Educators see third grade as the dividing line between
learning to read and reading to learn. Every year we watch The Dictionary
Project grow by expanding our pool of sponsors, so more children can enjoy
the benefits of owning their own personal dictionary.
I believe that this program is very vital to
the education process of children. It provides them with one more tool in
their arsenal to learn how to read. Good reading skills will promote and
improve student performance in other subject areas as well.
I would like to send my sincere thanks to the
members of the Centralia Sunrise Rotary.
David Schulte, Principal
Thank
you for our clean school!
