 Santa Shop: Tuesday, 12/8  8:45:  

PreK will be shopping first thing in the morning!  There will be helpers there to help our little shoppers with their lists.  Please fill out your Santa Shop Forms and return them to school by the due date.  If your child does not come to school on Tuesdays, you are welcome to bring them to the sale with you on this day and time so they can shop with the rest of our class if you would like them to but please be sure to fill out your shopping form by the due date as well.  This is a completely optional HSA sponsored event.  Our class will all be going to the Shop during our class's time slot but only our shoppers will be taking turns shopping while everyone else colors Christmas pictures.

Our Week in Photos:
πŸ“Έ Here's A Little Snap Shot of Our WeekπŸ“Έ 


We started off the week with our "Goodbyes..."


After reading a very special, very old storybook, Mousekin's Golden House, about a special jack-o-lantern becoming a home for a sweet mouse, we decided to take our own Mr. Pumpkin out to our STS woods to see if it too can become a special home for someone!πŸŽƒ









Then we gathered back indoors to learn Letter G and to read another great storybook about two friends and a gumball machine!


Then we made our own Letter G Gumball Machines!









Our Religion Lesson focused on how blessed we all are to have such Great Families!!




We did such a great job with our patterning skills too!!












Our Five Day Friends voted on which "G" Book we should read!!


Grumpy Monkey was the winner!!
We practiced our GRUMPIEST FACES too!!


After a great discussion on making GOOD CHOICES and about how it is ok to feel GRUMPY sometimes, we played a Good Choice vs Not a Good Choice Game on our Magnet Board!









Then we wrote our own Good Choice: Sharing Stories!


Margie Maple has Given us all she's Got!
