Polar Express Day

We loved wearing our pajamas to school today for Polar Express Day!   

We were so excited to get Polar Express tickets to "board the train." Mrs. Lutrick our conductor, punched them for us this morning.

We also received a special gift from Santa...only those who believe hear the bell. 

The 6th grade orchestra performed a few holiday songs for us.  Looking forward to our Winter party tomorrow. 

Reindeer Day

Today was a very exciting day in Kindergarten. We celebrated "Reindeer Day." First we watched an online read aloud of the story Imogene's Antlers,  and then we made our very own antlers. We also wrote about what we would do if we had real antlers of our own.  

Tomorrow is Polar Express Day!  Don't forget to wear your pajamas! 

Grinch Day

We had so much fun on Grinch Day!  We described how the Grinch was at the beginning of the book and then how his heart grew at the end of the book.  We also made made our own Grinch, and wrote what we would do to make him grin!

Happy Grinch Day everyone!!

This week in kindergarten...

We are going to be super busy this week!  We have a lot of fun activities planned! 

Today was Gingerbread Day!  We read The Gingerbread Man, Gingerbread Baby, and The Gingerbread Girl! 

Here is a picture of how we compared the three stories:

Tomorrow will be Grinch Day, so wear your Grinch shirt or your Coe's Creatures t-shirt to be green like the Grinch!

Thursday is Polar Express Day!   Students may wear their warmest pajamas!

Friday is our class party!

Holidays Around the World

This week our students will be traveling around the world (other Kindergarten classrooms) to learn about different celebrations in other countries.  Be looking for their projects each day and have them discuss what they learned during their visit!  We will also be traveling to: Israel, Italy, Mexico, Germany, and America! 

Thank You Miss Pyle!

Today was was Miss Pyle's last day.  We were all very sad and we are going to miss her a lot.  We know that she is going to be a great teacher and we wish her the best!

Thank you Miss Pyle!!!

Christmas Tradition Homework

We have been talking about family traditions at school, and will be starting "Holidays around the World" rotations next week.  Please help your student complete the Christmas Tradition page. Be sure to include a picture at the top and help your child write a description of your family tradition.

Please return your project THIS Friday, December 7^th.  Students will each take a turn sharing their project with the class.  These will be displayed in the hallway next week!

Have Fun!

Science on the Move

Today we had Science on the Move with students from 6th grade!   This is an awesome opportunity for 6th graders to come in and teach what they have learned! 

The 6th graders had a great time teaching the kindergarteners about energy, conductors, and insulators!
