Christmas Around the World

So far, we have learned about children in The Netherlands, Israel, The United States and India.  We're learning a little more about our world and where these countries are located on our map and how they celebrate in December.  The children are busy singing about reindeer and snowman and enjoying every song!

We have our World of Bounce field trip this Thursday and I will send home a reminder but please send in a lunch for your child and also make sure they're wearing socks as they need them on in order to bounce.  Of course, it's been quite chilly so I'm sure they will have their socks on!  The trip will be in our regularly scheduled school day so the buses/PICCA vans will run their regular schedules.

Santa will be coming to school next Tuesday, December 21 at around 10:30 and we'll take pictures of any students that want to talk to him!  Then on Wednesday, December 22, the last day of school before our Christmas Break we'll be swimming so please send in their swimming suits and towels.  We'll also have our Christmas Party at 2:00.

It's been a busy month and we're enjoying every minute!  We will open up a gift wrapping center tomorrow where the children can use tape and scissors to wrap up gifts from the play area to enhance their play time as they pretend to give presents to each other!  It should be great fun as they cut and wrap away!
