As a whole school we are still collecting change for the Bucket of Cheer. If you have any loose change laying around (in your car, on your bureau, etc.) and are willing to send it in with your child, your contribution will be greatly appreciated.
Concert tonight. Starts at 6:30p.m. Please have your child in the classroom at 6:15pm. Thank you.
We read, Santa's Stuck by Rhonda Gowler Greene. "This playful picture book answers the age-old question: Just how does Santa shimmy up and down chimneys? Not very easily sometimes! When the rotund fellow with a sweet tooth overdoes it on the snacks, he gets stuck inside a chimney."
Math....
We learned about the dreidel.
A dreidel is a four-sided spinning top, played with during the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah. The dreidel is a Jewish variant on the teetotum, a gambling toy found in many European cultures.
We played many games in small groups and had a great time doing it. We then switched to shape review. Looking at 3-D shapes .... Cone, cylindar, pyramid, cube, sphere, prisms.
Language Arts....
New letter Xx. Now if learning all the letters we have done isn't tricky enough we have to throw in the letter X! We reviewed how to say the sound that X says. We also thought of some words that had the letter X. Fox, Fix, Ox, Axe, Six, Trix, X-Ray, Box, Lynx, Flex.
