    As a class we have decided to do a Secret Santa next week.  Here are the rules:
    1. Your gift(s) may not be valued at more than $10.00
    2. You need to bring something every day, or every second day.  This may be either a small gift or treat, or it could be a clue as to what the gift will be or who is the gift giver.
    3. You need to keep your identity secret, so don't tell your friends who you have chosen.  If you see someone delivering a gift to someone, please do not tell the receiver of the gift who delivered the gift. You may ask someone to deliver your gift in order to trick your person.
    4. On Friday we will reveal the identity of the Secret Santas.
    5. As there were some students missing today, we will be drawing names for Secret Santas on Friday, but this doesn't mean that you can't start brainstorming gift ideas and making gifts right away.
    This is supposed to be for fun, and is not supposed to cause any stress on anyone.  Please make sure to abide by the rules so that no one feels left out.
