Hello Parents! Thank you all so much for coming to our Christmas Program. The children did an AMAZING job. Mrs. Gonzalez and I are so proud of them. We hope you all had a great time. This will be our last full week of school! Next week we will have a short week of only Monday and Tuesday!
Important Dates and Reminders:
- December 12th– Special visit from Abraham, Trinity’s comfort dog!
- December 19th- Christmas PJ/Movie day
- December 20th- Ugly sweater day/Class Christmas party! More details to come on our ClassDojo.
- December 21st – January 2nd- Christmas Break! School will resume on January 3rd.
We are going to continue getting into the holiday spirit by reading various holiday books such as “The Story of the Nativity”, “The Night Before Christmas” and “The Polar Express”. This Sunday is the third night of Advent. We will be “lighting” our third advent candle in school and discussing what joy means. Please also light your third candle at home!
We will be learning the letter Kk and continue to review numbers 1-10, colors and shapes. We will be reading two different “The Night Before Christmas” books and comparing the two! We will continue finishing up all of our Christmas presents we are creating. They will be presents the children can give to their families. Lastly, we will recap our week in our weekly Journals.
For music and movement, we will continue practicing our Christmas songs that we will be singing in our Christmas program and follow a festive guided dance using GoNooodle.com.
For Jesus time, we will continue our December prayer which is taken from the last verse in the song Away in a Manger. Mrs. Gonzalez will teach the children about the Shepards. She will also discuss how Jesus was born, the importance of Christmas and why we celebrate.
