DECEMBER

     **Christmas break is Dec. 25-Jan.1st  Come back to school on Tuesday, Jan. 2nd.  

How did we make it to the Christmas season...again??!!!  Students have been making ornaments to decorate the tree.

   

We have been talking about real vs. fake trees.  Did you know you have to water a real tree, but not a fake one.  Did you know that real trees will drop "needles" on the floor if you don't water them?! LOL  

*Question of the month: 
       Do you have a real tree?

RESULTS ARE IN.......

              YES  8      NO   20  

I am always surprised by how may families still have "real" trees. They do smell great, but I can never remember to water the tree! 😂 


Just a few of the books we have been reading this month!

December words we have been talking about: 

Santa, Stocking, Sleigh, Decorations, Ornament, Wreath, Reindeer, Candle, present, glistening, joyous, Elf, poinsettia, holly berries, Eve

**and even MORE websites to have Christmas fun!

I have been talking to my students about a neat website to watch Santa's Reindeer!  Click HERE to see it.  I think Santa shows up at 11am, 6pm and 9pm. We leave it on the computer all day to see the antics those reindeer cause.  This year I saw "The Grinch" steal a stocking and a wreath, while Santa was reading some mail!!        So exciting to share and watch as a family.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all of my students and their families. Have a great winter break!!
