December News

Hi Parents,
It's hard to believe that December 1st is this week and that we will be on winter break in three short weeks.

Today we read an amazing book called, Albert, and were inspired to draw and paint cardinals in winter.


Art Show:   Monday, December 12th from 11-11:55
We have been collecting all of our art since the start of the year and we would love to show you what we've done.    You are welcome to stay and eat lunch with your child aftterwards (our lunch is from 11:55-12:25).  At this time you will get to see your child's art, learn about some famous artists, and best of all... take home all the artwork your child has created so far this year.   I hope everyone will be able to make it here.

In math, we are working on learning all the ways to make the number 10 (1+9, 5+5, 6+4, etc.).   This is a great thing to practice at home, in the car, while waiting for someone, etc.  The faster they know these facts, the easier and more fun math becomes.  We had a great time today noticing patterns when we made a table to show how to make the number 10.

We also made a December calendar in class today that students are bringing home.   These are great things to hang in their rooms so they can see all the things coming up this month. 

Today's writers:  Jacqulean, Theo, and Zoe
