Goodbye 2015!!!
December was a whirl wind of activity, beside our normal work load... We worked hard and played hard! Here's a quick overview of some of the things we did:
- We listened to and watched the Russian ballet perform the Nutcracker, via Youtube. Mrs. Ross played the music almost everyday at lunch time, and now we recognize many of the musical compositions.
- We had a visitor named, Nour! She used to be in this class and is now a 1st grader. Nour assisted us in decorating our own original paper gingerbread man.
- Adam's grandfather made his annual visit to our class with his accordion and rhythm instruments. Each child was given and instrument to play and they accompanied him with giggles of glee. **Click the play button below to see a snippet of our musical talent!**
- Azra's sister, Ayla, also made her annual appearance to read a story to us about ballet, with a giant Nutcracker in hand!
- We made Gingerbread Houses on the 17th! We showed our creativity and got sticky... yummy times :)! A big THANK YOU to all of the moms who came and helped... you all made that activity a success! We appreciate all you did that day and all you do everyday!!!
- On the last day before break, the 3rd years went to the Kennedy Center for the Elephant and Piggy performance (see pic below). The 1st and 2nd years stayed behind to enjoy special snacks and movement activities.
