Snow fun!

By -

We had SNOW much fun with all the new snow we have outside! We went sliding, shoveled paths, and rolled in the snow. We had a blast!














Also this week Mrs. Jane came and shared the story of Hanukkah with both classrooms. We got to see a menorah and how it is lit. We learned a traditional Hanukkah dance and song. The preschoolers really enjoyed learning about another holiday that is going on right now!

The second graders are our Reading Buddies.     Ms. Patti frequently has a crowd around her when she reads during choice time. The kids miss having Ms. Shyanne read to them. Back in February, every student was able to choose a new book to bring home. A special guest reader (Olivia K's big sister) came in and read to the class onetime. Wow! It's Mrs. Waterman! It's always exciting when the kindergarten teacher visits our classroom to read to us.
