Tuesday Holiday Party!


Along with our party today the kids got to visit and bring Christmas joy to the grandmas and grandpas across the street too! It's so great to share joy with others at Christmas so I'm glad we were able to do that. The kids did a great job singing their Christmas songs! :-)


Thanks to everyone who brought yummy goodies and gifts! I hope you enjoyed the party! Here's some fun photos....

TGIF


The kids are all finished with their Christmas gifts for you and they've turned out so nice! I'm sure you'll be excited to keep them for years to come! :-) We had a fun day today with games, art and stories! We've been learning how to play bingo this week and I think the kids were really getting the hang of it today! We play with shapes rather than the traditional way so it's a fun way to practice that also!


Just as I expected, they seemed to REALLY enjoy my most favorite Christmas story: Mr. Willowby's Christmas Tree. We've read it a couple of times now so I decided to pause in a couple spots to see if they remembered what came next and many of them did. It's a great book to put on your holiday list. :-)


Teacher Denise helped the kids practice their writing skills by writing in shaving cream! They practiced letters and shapes and made a great big mess! :-) It was fun!


Don't forget our Christmas parties coming up this Monday and Tuesday! Thanks for signing up to bring goodies and don't forget to bring a wrapped book for your child to participate in the book exchange.

Wacky Wednesday

Wasn't it such a beautiful day to day! I got a few cute photos of the kids outside today since it was a sunny day.


Don't forget, this month is the Sunshine class month to keep the library clean. While you are spending time in there, please take time to put a few books away and straighten a bit.

Thanks!


Monday...and a Little Friday

Monday was our last day to practice our songs and prepare for our fun evening! Our schedule was a little different because of that and so at the end of the day we had some extra time for something special. I brought in a book on CD about reindeers. The kids gathered around the CD player and quietly listened while enjoying the photos in the book. It was cute to watch them!

Here's some photos. Also included are a few from last Friday that I didn't realize I had taken. :-)


P.S. The kids did such a great job Monday night! I know you were just as proud of them as I was! :-) Oh, I didn't get to take any photos of the concert, so if you got any digital ones that you'd be happy to share with the class, please feel free to send them to my email and I can upload them for you. Thanks!
