What a week!

After the excitement of the bears and pajama day last week, we really exhausted ourselves with the winter rotations.  Everyday we went to a different class to make a snowman.  I'm sure you saw the "soup" and great paintings come home.

When we get back in January, though, we get back to work.  Our winter formal reading assessments begin right away.  We will be reinforcing some counting concepts and for science (drum roll).....

We will have a new class pet - meal worms.  They will delivered the first week we get back.  We will make them a home as we learn about what things animals need to survive.  We will be learning about the life cycle of the meal worm, too (as well as other animals).  Eventually, these meal worms will become darkling beetles.  Its not as bad as it sounds.  The kids love it.


Have a wonderful holiday season.
