We started Holidays Around the World this week. We studied England, Germany, Italy and France. We started out with a "plane ride." I was the flight attendant and we travelled to the various countries. The kids loved the "flight!"
We made some stockings for our England craft.
So cute!
Look at the kids focusing on lacing their stockings together. Wow!
You can also see Mrs. Hayes in the background helping.
We cut out and decorated Christmas Trees for our craft for Germany.
I LOVE the trees. They are in all different shapes. So CUTE!
Garrett and Miri stamped with toilet paper roles.
The kids had a blast using glitter to decorate their stars.
Don't ask me about the mess….I want to forget about it :)
The important thing is that the kids had fun, which they did.
I sent home writing journal #1 (green cover) last week. The kids received their new journals (yellow cover) this past week.
Gage and Jacob are buddies and had a blast writing in their new writing journals.
Jakob loved his new journal.
Abigail drew a really detailed picture in her new journal.
Gio was pondering what to write about in his new journal.
S. had some great work in her journal.
Evan was very focused.
Samuel was very excited to get a new journal.
Naturalist in Residence:
On Thursday, December 4, we had our Naturalist in Residence session. We learned all about the watershed and the kids got to practice with a mock watershed.
Map of bodies of water around Mt. View Elem. School.
"What is a watershed?" map.
Children exploring.
More exploration.
Look how engaged the kids are.
Very exciting. This was before adding houses, logs, trees etc.
