Newsletter 12/22

We had so many special activities this week and we were very busy making treats for loved ones!

We attended the school holiday concert on Tuesday and the school-wide sing on Friday morning.  We finished making our gifts for our families, our own wrapping paper, and cards, too!  Our buddies visited to make holiday place mats and then we played with them outside.

We generated ideas on how to celebrate having collected the most pajamas for our PJ drive.  Then we took a vote and EXTRA RECESS won by a small margin!  We'll be having that fun in the new year.

We read our next Peter adventure, A Whistle for Willie and we learned more about Peter's character.  We saw that he shares some of the same character traits from The Snowy Day, but is growing up a bit.

We collected December's weather data and examined the temperature.  We are finally having "blue" days- and SNOW!   Happy winter, Everyone!

Wishing you and yours a blessed holiday and a fun vacation!

News and Notes:

  • We will be filling our book sleeves again on FRIDAY 1/5.  Students may keep those books until 1/15.
  • Shh... it's a secret, but when we return, the Darien Nature Center will come in to teach us about animals in winter!
  • Back to school on Wednesday, 1/3

Buddy fun!
