Christmas

This week we began the first of three weeks on Christmas!  We did many cute crafts this week.

The students painted a Christmas tree using giant marshmallows!

 Poinsettias 

 Handprint reindeer

 One of our favorite books this week, "How the Grinch Stole Christmas".

 The students made their own Grinch and wrote what they would do to make the Grinch grin on Christmas. 

 Practicing sight words - Pulling them from a Santa hat

 Santa even came to visit us in the library on Tuesday!

 More great books!

 Happy Birthday, Micah!
