We started our day with a social skills lesson. We then worked on part of our kindergarten Christmas presents. The kiddos are working very hard and super excited to give their gifts to you! We then did calendar and Daily News. After Daily News, we took time to share our homework. We tried to do it last Friday, but ran out of time. I so appreciated how each kiddo shared what they were proud of and how their friends listened and complemented them. We then moved on to math, where the kiddos worked together to identify objects that were shorter or longer, counted each, and wrote the number. We ended our day together with a story - Duck on a Bike. We used picture clues to make predictions about the story. We also sang the Twelve Days of Christmas with some pretty cool moves!
PM kinders had library checkout today!

4. Christmas Break is December 21-January 1. School resumes on January 4th.
5. Please send your child in warm clothes! It's very cold (and wet) outside and we'll continue to go outside, even as the snow comes (or if the rain stops). Below are the district cold weather guidelines:
1. Students will have morning access to their school buildings when the temperature (with wind chill) is below 16 degrees.
2. Recess will be in-doors when the temperature (with wind chill) is below 16 degrees.
3. Please make sure children are equipped and appropriately dressed for cold weather. Coats, hats, and gloves are recommended to assure students remain warm and comfortable while outside.
Have a great night!
