Butterfly Classroom News
This week we talked about winter. We made ice skates, snowmen, hand print mittens and gingerbread men .We read the story, “ Flip and Flop” about two penguins. We reviewed our numbers with my Christmas frogs and we also sang “Eve the Christmas Tree”. The children loved that song! Next week we will be talking about winter clothing and learning some new fun songs! Have a great weekend .

Caterpillar Classroom News "The stockings were hung by the chimney with care." The caterpillars continued the Christmas fun by decorating stockings, painting candles and creating a handprint wreath to hang by our classroom fireplace! We practiced being Santa Claus by wearing Santa hats and filling bags with toys! Ho ho ho! We brought the winter into our room by adding snow to our sensory table to explore! We also talked about the true meaning of Christmas and read books about baby Jesus. We sang "Happy Birthday Jesus ", played with a nativity set and created a nativity scene! Next week we will take a "trip" on the Polar Express !
