The students loved our Slumber party last week. They loved coming to school in their pajamas and playing in their sleeping bags and blankets. Lots of Fun!

SHOW AND TELL IS THURSDAY AND FRIDAY THIS WEEK!

This week our theme is The Gingerbread Man. Our Special Event is making a Gingerbread Man. Each student will stir our batter and help pour the batter into our special Gingerbread Bear pan. Ms. Tina will take the pan to her house and place it in her oven. Her dog Buddy and her cat Sassy will watch the oven. They promised not to leave the kitchen. When the Gingerbread Man is finished baking, we will bring him to TBC and share him for our snack. Last year the Gingerbread Man ran away, but the children found him hiding on the toy shelves.

MONDAY the class will begin by recognizing the letter “P”. Our number is “4” with the four seasons for our story. Everyone will cut, count and paste leaves on the trees. They are doing a wonderful job with this hard exercise. Our letter is “X”. Our Rhyming word is “CAT”. We will make a Gingerbread Man for our craft and our snack.

TUESDAY the Bears will begin by matching pairs. The number is “5” and the story is Henny Penny. Everyone will count PIGS. WE will make a Gingerbread Man for our snack and our craft.

WEDNESDAY the children will begin by finding items that begin with the letter “H”. Our Rhyming word is “CLOCK”. Our Science unit continues with our Sense of TASTE. Our letter is “Y”.
