The Penny war ends on Friday

Something that Elliott and Gavin’s school is doing is called *The Penny War. *Each classroom is trying to collect the most pennies. You can also put dollar bills, nickels, dimes and quarters into another classrooms pot.

For example, if a classroom get a $1 bill in their pot, they loose 100 pennies.  Hence the phrase *Penny Wars. *

Anyways, when all is said and done, the money will be counted, converted into cash and donated to a family in need.  This is one war that I support.  In fact, we been arming Elliott's classroom with ammunition.

We've done the same for Gavin's classroom for years.  Now it's Elliott’s turn.

The winning classroom gets a pizza party.

As the dust settles by Friday afternoon, we should have the winner announced.  However, in my eyes, they're all winners for donating to a good cause.  :-)
