Grinch & Santa

This is how we get our energy out during these exciting days in December!

We had a surprise visit from Santa today.  This was our PBIS reward for filling our container with tickets for being respectful, responsible and safe.  He brought us a gift (class book), hot chocolate and a cookie.  What a great way to start the day!

Later in the day we had our Grinch snack which included vanilla pudding with green food coloring and sprinkles, and 7UP with lime sherbert.  What an exciting day!!!!!

Birdfeeders

Pam Holtz came and helped us make some feeders to feed our furry friends in the winter.  We used some shortening, bread and seed.  The best part was mashing it up and putting it in a cookie cutter.  What a fun and messy project!

We also had some more fun activites with Mrs. Seward to stretch our brains and thinking.  We focused on the word PERSISTENCE when using some gumdrops and toothpicks to build a tower that would support a book.  Lots of great conversations and thinking happening during this activity!

What a day!!!

Some of the best Birthday Treats come from Hurt's Donuts.  Thanks so much Alex for bringing your friends cookie monster donuts!

We also had a great time with Mrs. Seward traveling to the zoo with google expeditions.  We saw some Polar Bears, Rhinos, Giraffes and elephants.  They had so much fun.  Enjoy the video and make sure to watch until the end :)

Last week Pam H. came and talked with us about animal families.

Lastly, we had a special package from the North Pole today.  You can watch the video and judge for yourself, but I think it's safe to say they were pretty excited!  We took a vote and our new special visitor is named Snowflake!
