Christmas Party

We started off our afternoon by watching a slideshow and listening to the story of The Polar Express. Then everyone got a magic bell and a cup of hot cocoa with a candycane. Here the girls are showing us their ticket to ride on the Polar Express.

Then we came back to our room and made reindeer cookies.



Then Mrs. H and CH shared with us some packages of Magic Christmas cocoa. On Christmas Eve students can mix their cocoa with hot water. Stir with the magic candycane, then drop in the magic bell. It will help everyone fall asleep easier on Christmas Eve.




We finished the day playing in our paper chain that we used to decorate our classroom.


Merry Christmas to everyone!

Reindeer with Reading Buddies

Today our reading buddies invited us to their room to make reindeer. First we read Jan Brett's story, The Wild Christmas Reindeer. This is ESH tracing EM hand for the antlers.
This is BL testing the reindeer nose before she puts it on her reindeer.
Duso came to visit us today. He use to visit us a lot when we were in Kindergarten.

A Gift To You

Today we came home with another gift for you, made with lots of love!

I hope you all have a very happy holiday.

Merry Christmas

Today we made a chain to decorate our classroom.

The other day our reading buddies came and SB got a huge hug from SB.
Last week we had our Christmas concert at the Vert. This is earlier in the day during practice.
On our way to the Vert to practice.
I hope you all got your first Christmas gift. Thank you to those of you that wanted to purchase some extra ones for family members. We have raised enough money to purchase a photo printer for our classroom. At the end of the year your child will be bringing home a pretty special photo album of their second grade memories.

Teaching Assembly

Today we went to a teaching assembly. We won the trophy for being such good listeners. This is SA and CC who collected the trophy for us. Thank you to the Police Dept. for the pencils in it. We love them. They change color when we warm them up. This is "Bucky" our school mascot. He just got back from the Horse Spa and he looks so GOOD! Thank you Parents Club for finding the money to help Bucky. We love him!
