Monday we started work on our families Christmas gifts. Our families and friends light up our lives just being in them so we desinged our own candles. Each student got to use sharpies do create a design of their choise and then I blow dryed them onto the candles. These will be sent home on Thursday in a blue, green or pink gift bag in your students backpack. As well we worked on our letter Oo project! Great job following directions and putting together your owls! :) | |
| Tuesday we made desinged our own Christmas trees if we could have them the way we wanted them. And of course we had to add some sparkle with some glitter. This morning during play time the kiddos helped me make some reindeer food or reindeer "dust" that they can sprinkle in their yard so that Santa can see where they are to drop off their gifts. They are very excited to take this home and spread it all over the yard! They are DETERMINED! :) During nap today we had two of our talented 6th graders come and play some beautiful Christmas music. Thank you ladies, you are very talented! |
Wednesday we had gym at the community center! Mrs. Zellner made up a really fun game where she had a row of hula hoops on either side of the gym. She named one "the store" and one "the north pole". We had to imagine that Santa ran out of toys and that he wouldn't have enough for all the kiddos in the world. So we had to help him out and be his elves/reindeer. The "toys" were in the "store" hoop and the students had to pick a toy, and sit on the scooter. The other student needed to be the reindeer and push the elf across the gym to one of the hoops across from them ("north pole hoops"). Then they swapped and came back to get another toy, etc. They loved this! :)
We also decided to do our "mini" gingerbread houses or tepees as I call them! THANK YOU MRS. JOHNSON for putting these together for us while we were at gym! Then the kiddos got to decorate them today! They will be eating them tomorrow during our movie. It took all of their will power not to eat the candy and houses today but they did it! :)

Thursday we had some coloring in the morning and Spanish! Thank you Mrs. Johnson for the wonderful snack of donuts! We appreciate it! :) As well we got to play outside with 3K and Mr. B came out to play as well. There is a picture of the kiddos piled on Mr. B in the snow! :) They were playing "off and on the ship". Today was our pajama day and the kiddos loved it because 3K, Kindergarten and some other classes had pajama day too with their Christmas party! Before lunch we started our movie, The Polar Express.
After lunch we came back into our class and finished our movie. The kiddos have a lot of snacks that are coming home today in a zip lock bag. They had some of their treats but a lot have been sent home so they don't get stomach aches. Thank you so much to all that sent some treats and things for the class! As well thank you from Mrs. Johnson and myself for the gifts we have received from students and their families. You are so sweet, we get a gift each day working with your kiddos each day.
