It's Christmas Christmas Christmas

Wow has this year flown by!!!!! I still can't believe we only have 4 1/2 more days until Christmas break!! We started off our week by reading The Christmas Story and learning all about the true reason we celebrate Christmas. 

In the afternoon we worked on size sorting by organizing our rectangles from smallest to largest to create a Christmas tree. 

On Tuesday we followed a glyph to create some unique Christmas Elves. 

Then in the afternoon we made some giant snowmen that spelled out our names.  We started by creating their faces and then each table had to search through a pile of letters to find the letters in their name (remembering to start with a capitol letter). 

On Wednesday we started off our day with some magical Christmas lights.  Each student was given a set of Christmas lights and they used water colors to paint each light and when they did something magical happened and letters started to appear and they spelled their names.  
Later in the day we followed another glyph to create some cute little reindeer.  
On Thursday we made some angelic angels

And on  Friday we held our annual Christmas program where we sang some Christmas songs for all of our families. I didn't remember to snap any pictures, but believe me when I tell you my babies were absolutely precious!

I hope everyone has a WONDERFUL Christmas break!!
