Week of 12/10

Dear Star Room 2AM Families,

What a great week we had in the classroom! Here are some of the fun activities we enjoyed during classroom.

Theme this week:

• We explored Christmas this week. We talked about Christmas trees and how we buy presents for people to show them we love them. Some children shared that they decorated a Christmas tree with their families at home.

 
Books we read:

• A Christmas Wish for Corduroy, by Don Freeman
• If You Take a Mouse to the Movies, by Laura Numeroff

 
Songs we sang:

• “Jingle Bells”
• “Five Little Gingerbread Men”
• “Santa Clause Is Coming to Town”

 
Places we went:

• We decorated auction paddles with Julia and Janae in Art using different art materials. Look for them at the Winter Benefit!
• We read Ella Sarah Gets Dressed and took out library books during Library with Lindsay
• We sang The Latke Song, Jingle Bells, Santa Clause is Coming to Town with Noel in Music
• We played in 2nd floor indoor gym

 
Classroom Activities:

• We created top hats for our upcoming “Happy New Year” bulletin board by gluing colorful jewels and tinsel to black top hat cutouts. We then printed out a picture of each child so it will look like they are “wearing” their hat! We also worked on a top secret gift for families, be on the lookout for them coming home soon!

 
Reminders:

• Library books are due back next Tuesday 12/18/18
• Holiday Party Tuesday 12/18/18 from 11:15AM to 11:45AM
  
• Enjoy the photos and have a great weekend! As always, please feel free to reach out through email with questions or concerns.​

Warmly,
Sarah and Jill
