Getting ready for Christmas break...

Lots happened in our class before we went on break! We completed a fun mitten unit in reading where we compared and contrasted two different books. We read the stories, "The Mitten" and "The Hat." Then, we made mittens to tell the different story elements in the story, "The Mitten," created a venn digram to tell how the stories were the same and different, and made a brochure about the two stories.


The class had a lot of fun in music preparing for the Advent Program. Mr. Tilton had them marching through the halls of our school and outside on the playground singing and playing their chimes. It was a fun melody to hear around the school.

We were sad to say goodbye to Kiley Weatherwax! We made her a fun scrapbook of all her memories this year at Visitation and we wish her the best as she prepares for her new school. We will all miss the Weatherwax family!!!

For Christmas, the students made their parents holiday wreaths. Inside the center of the wreath the students cut out a poem the describes the symbol the wreath represents. We hope the families enjoyed the holiday cheer they brought as much as we enjoyed making them.
