Dec. 20/18

Div. 9's stockings were hung on the fireplace with care!  Each stocking has a winter or Christmas riddle on it which they will share with parents that are able to join us for family reading tomorrow.

Excitement is definitely in the air.  We have had a week of Christmas crafts, math and even explorations.  The students each brought home their bag of Christmas crafts from around the world as well as their special craft gift that they made for you with their big buddies.

At one of our Explorations stations the students created 'The Polar Express'!  Every group had great ideas as you can see below.

Thanks so much to Carter, Rhys, Kamryn, Saga and Steve for providing the snacks and goodies for our celebration tomorrow.  In addition thanks to Rhys' family for giving our class the opportunity to try Stroopwaffels - a Dutch tradition which we are planning to have with our hot chocolate tomorrow.  Also to Lexi and Alicia for sharing pomegranate and the prosperous wishes for the new year that come with that!

Poetry, Songs, Math and More is coming home tomorrow.  It has several Christmas math games that would be a fun way to practice their math skills with family over the holidays.

Hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and holiday season!!
