Week of 11/27

Hello Sun Room Families!
 
This week we talked about our Thanksgiving feasts! We started talking about the fast approaching holiday season.  
 
Here are a few highlights from the past weeks.
 
Classroom Activities

• We easel painted!
• We watercolored!
• We made a beautiful winter forest from our paintings for the outside board.
• We started working on our holiday gifts for our families. 

​Songs We Sang

• We sang "December Song" (sung to the tune of "I've Been Working On the Railroad")

Oh, the month of December
is filled with holidays!
Kwanzaa, Hanukkah and Christmas
Are marked in special ways!
Celebrating with our loved ones,
 
No matter how it's done...
Sharing gifts and lighting candles,
We all have lots fun!

• We sang "Happy Hanukkah!" (sung to the tune of "Mary Had a Little Lamb")

Hanukkah's a happy time,
Happy time, happy time.
Hanukkah's a happy time,
A festival of lights.
 
Light one candle for each pf eight nights,
Each of eight nights, each of eight nights
 
Light one candle for each of eight nights
A festival of lights
