The last day of school for the year 2013!!

What a year we have had so far! Our last day for 2013 was so much fun! We entered our "Polar Express Train" classroom in our pajamas with a golden tickets in hand! We had some tasty doughnuts, hot cocoa and watched the movie Polar Express play on our big screen! :) It was a great day that ended with a great Chets tradition, Candy Canes with Auntie Claus!!! We could not have asked for a better last day and look forward to what the new year brings!

Multi-Cultural Day 12/17/13

We traveled around to different classrooms and learned about many different cultures from all over the world! It is important to learn about different cultures because it helps us understand people who may seem different from us and what a FUN day it was!

The different cultures we learned about were: 

1. Feliz Navidad ~ We sang to the office staff

2.  Kwanzaa ~ We made a Kwanzaa mat called a Mkeka

3. Traditional Christmas ~ Mrs. KK our Book Fairy read of the book Silver Packages. We made a silver package of our own filled with thankful notes to our loved ones. 

4. Hanukkah ~ We danced the Hora and played dreidle

5. Christian Christmas ~ We read a LEGO Christmas book and did a small play of the nativity scene 

6. the Legend of the Poinsettia ~ We read the book Legend of the Poinsettia and made poinsettias of our own.
