All About Me
We were very excited to have our first few students share their "Me Boxes" over the last couple of weeks!
 |
| We loved learning about Sandra last week when she brought in her "Me Box." We learned that she loves her family and enjoys playing Barbies with her sister. She is also a very healthy eater who loves tomatoes and cucumbers! |
 Natalie loves to play games and write stories, and she enjoys going on trips with her family. She shared photos from her most recent trip to Disney World, which the class loved. Natalie also loves spending time with her aunt and cuddling with her cat! 
As you can see, Rique LOVES soccer! He also enjoys playing with cars and building with Legos. He loves spending time with his Mom and Dad, and he is proud of his faith!
Edward, who also loves to play soccer, is an amazing big brother and an adventurous eater! He loves spending time with his family and building with Legos. He is a big Bears fan and loves Veggie Tales!

Math
The children did a fantastic job using our pattern block templates to create their very own gingerbread house creations this week. They were so creative with their designs! The children also made a "Candy Counting" book to add to their book collections at home. They loved coloring and reading the rhyming story.
Jolly Phonics
We took a break from learning new sounds in Jolly Phonics this week and spent some time reviewing all the sounds we have already learned. We will finish our final book when we return from break!
Literacy
The children loved our gingerbread stories this week--Gingerbread Baby and Gingerbread Friends. Both stories were written by Jan Brett, an amazing author and illustrator, and were unique variations from the original story of the Gingerbread Man. We made some comparisons between both stories, and the children were so excited to see that the Gingerbread Baby was the main character in the story Gingerbread Friends! The children also enjoyed the books Stick Man and The Nutcracker during read aloud this week. The children brought home a new sight word book to add to their collections this week as well as a copy of our December Song. We loved singing it one last time!
