Happy Tuesday!
Boy!! It seems like
December is just flying by!! With the excitement of Christmas in the
air, we have been hearing all sorts of Santa sightings, elf happenings
and train rides. It sounds like everyone had a fun and busy weekend!
We are working hard learning our songs for our upcoming program next week.. We can't wait to share them all with you!
Our
story today was "Penguin and Pinecone" By Salina Yoon. This is a very
cute story about a penguin who finds a pinecone. He loves playing with
the pinecone, but his grandfather tells him that where they live it is
too cold for the pinecone to grow. He puts a scarf on the pinecone to
keep him nice and warm. One day Penguin takes pinecone into the warm
forest, and makes a nice cozy nest for him to snuggle in. He said
goodbye, and headed back to his home. As the year went by, Penguin
couldn't stop thinking about his friend pinecone. So, Penguin went back
to the forest to visit pinecone. Ask your child what Penguin found
when he went to visit pinecone.
Today at our table
tops, we put our own scarfs on pinecones. However, our scarves were
pipe cleaners. I was really proud of how well everyone did winding
their pipe cleaners on the pinecones. We tied ribbons on the pinecones
and hung them on our Christmas tree in our classroom.
Ellie was our snack leader today. She brought yogurt and bananas. Thank you, Ellie!!
Don't forget to wear GREEN on Thursday, as it is our Birthday and Cooking Day!
