Trees & Lights


This week was packed full of activity as we caught up on some portfolio work and finished a few projects we weren't able to complete in the past few weeks.  We enjoyed visiting with all of the parents, grandparents and family members that came to school on Thursday to help paint ornaments.  The kids really loved showing off their classroom and friends.  We practiced tracing the numbers 1, 2 and 3, traced along dotted lines, used our fine-motor skills to glue pom-poms onto a Christmas tree, practiced hand-eye coordination while using dotters, made a Christmas tree sun catcher, stamped thumb prints on our very own strings of lights, arranged items from smallest to largest, and practiced identifying several shapes while creating our shape Christmas tree craft.  There are so many fun ways to learn in December!  Next week we will be learning about Baby Jesus and the true meaning of Christmas!
