The Patriots Chain

 
Dear New England Patriots,

The day after every game, the 4-year-old Haifa All Star Class at Temple Beth Shalom,
Needham, MA, made a paper chain. The number of links in each chain equaled the total number
of points scored by the Patriots that week

The children dictated the following letter about this activity. They are very excited about
telling you what they did.

We made you so many chains. See our picture in this letter. We made one paper chain
for every game you played. Each link in the paper chains we made are for each point you scored.
Jay G. says to please say hello to Wes Welker. We hope you are happy that we made these
paper chains for you. You did really well this season. We made strips of paper with a scissors.
Then we put them together in a circle. We stapled the circles. We made most of these chains on
Mondays in 2010. We counted the circles and put them in a pattern. Every week we had a
different color pattern.

We want you to win the games the rest of this year. We want you to win the Super Bowl.

Thank you for winning.
 
Love, The Haifa Class

  5. Sandi,
    I quite agree. Doing nice things and writing nice letters does deserve a response. As soon as we hear from The Pats we will let everyone know on the blog. So stay tuned for coming attractions.
