Christmas party Friday at 9:00.

We had a special day because our principal, Mrs. Koonce, came to read a Christmas story to us. It was called Too Many Toys. We made our last ornament for our Christmas tree, it is a little Rudolph. Today we went to the science lab to learn how to use parts to make things whole or move. At the end of the day we worked on problem solving doing addition and subtraction with Christmas story boards. After lunch and PE we read 4 new Christmas books.

We are working on self-control so we can go see the play tomorrow.

This afternoon we were treated to a surprise by the intermediate school. They let us their bouncy house during peripherals. We had a blast!!! After the bouncy house we went to the library and checked out new library books. Mrs. Elder read us McDuff’s New Friend. After lunch the box top lady brought us our prize for winning the box top bowl. We received 100 dollars to spend on our classroom. We had our picture taken for the newspaper, so keep a lookout for it.

Christmas party Friday, Dec. 18 at 9:00.

We finished ready our Junie B. Jones Christmas book today. We were ecstatic that she made a good choice and ended up making someone else really happy. This morning we did reading centers where we are learning how to use our Ipods to listen to stories. Since Christmas is coming up we decorated Christmas trees to hang up in the room and continued working on our Santa letters. Look for a copy of Santa letters to come home next week with graded papers. Have a great weekend and bundle up!
