Mrs.Brown has Sammy introduce himself, then has the class say there name one by one. Then Mrs.Brown tells Anita's class that they are going to play a game called Secret Santa. Each person will have someone that they will have to send letters to and get small gifts.

This reminds me of the time at my church when they gave every one a Secret Santa. We have to get that person a special gift without them finding out that u are there Secret Santa.

Before We Were Free
Right now in the story Anitas mom is trying to get closer to the Washburns. She has invited other Dominican ladies so that Mrs.Washburn can increase her Spanish vocabulary. They have a new maid to help Chucha. Anitas mom says that that they have to watch what they say around the new maid because she's "new".
Quote "Although Mami is trying to save money,there's too much work keeping up with all the houses in the compound for just Chucha.So Mami hired a young girl to help out. But we have to be careful what we say around her".

I think that when she goes to school she will be overwhelmed by questions. Eventually shes going to to tell her friends who was at her house, and why.
