Week of December 12th

This week our theme was ‘Christmas’.  The children made reindeer, Christmas lights and worked on some special projects in preparation for your visit on the 21^st/22^nd!  We also continued to work on counting, number identification and singing Christmas songs!  Our letter for the week was Ii.

Please remember that I do my best to update my classroom blog weekly!  You can view our classroom news letter, see pictures of your child, view projects we’ve made, check out photos from some of our FBI events, find on-line games for your child to play and check your child’s report card with the Family Access Log-in link!

Next week our theme will continue be ‘Christmas’.  We will start the week by playing Christmas games and lacing a candy cane.  Then on Wed. & Thurs. each class will have a Christmas party (please be sure your child has brought a gift so they can participate in the gift exchange).  Following that our Christmas program will be held in the library at 9:30.  (The children are REALLY excited and looking forward to your visit.  Thank you for helping us make this a special day)!  After the program you are invited back to the classroom for cookies, punch and a surprise!  You are welcome to take your child home at any time following the program. 

For those of you planning to:

 Take your child home: you will NOT need to send snow pants or boots as we won’t have time to go outside. 

Have your child stay at school: you will need to send snow pants and boots, as we will continue with our regular schedule for the remainder of the day and watch a movie.

*All children will need backpacks on the day of the program.

 Reminders & Updates:                                    

*Christmas Vacation:  No school Dec. 23^rd-Jan. 2^nd.  (When the 
children return our theme will be “Snowmen & Snow”and our letter 
will be Ss).

*Remember to send 3 pair of warm winter mittens to school so your child has warm, dry hands for each recess.  (Finger mittens are not warm enough).
