Holiday Party Success!

We had an amazing time with holiday activities today. We started out the day with a color by category bell worksheet and got students started on a special gift for their parents. Then we went to Media at 9:30 and when we got back we continued working on our gift project, wrote letters to Santa, and did a Christmas crossword puzzle. After lunch we read "The Gingerbread Girl" and noticed similarities & differences between this story and some other gingerbread stories we've read. Then we had groups listen to "Polar Express" on CD while others made their own holiday book, created holiday puzzles, and put together and colored a christmas riddle book. After that it was time for PE and when we returned we made reindeer cookies using nutter butters, m&m's for the eyes/nose, and a pretzel for the antlers. We also ate cupcakes and watched Spongebob. Then we passed out goodie bags and gave hugs for the break. Thank everyone so much for contributing money and goodies to make it a day to remember! I will be posting pictures, if you have approved, very soon.

Happy Holidays & Happy New Year!
