Hello Stupendous First Graders and Super First Grade Families!
It's the first official day of winter break! I hope everyone has a wonderful and relaxing break!
Thank you so much to all the parents who donated time and supplies to make our party great! Today was SO much fun! The kids had a great time at our party and they really enjoyed all of the Christmas centers. The party centers were:
1. Shoebox Snow Scene - The kids made a snow village in a shoebox! They used coconut for snow and they used candies, cakes and cookies to make houses and animals for the snow scene. They are cute and tasty!
2. Hand and Footprint Reindeer - This was a fun and MESSY center! The kids made a picture of Rudolph using one foot (covered in paint!) for the body and two hands (covered in paint!) for the antlers. They added googley eyes and a red nose. These are adorable!
3. Movable Santa and Rudolph - The kids colored and cut Santa and Rudolph pieces and put them together with brads. They look very cute!
4. Finger Puppets - The kids colored different Christmas pictures, cut them out and taped them to turn them into finger puppets. They loved this!
Mr. Johnston came to help at the party too! After the centers, he read a Christmas book to the kids. They were a very captive audience! Mr. Johnston really enjoyed his time in our class!
After lunch we read Christmas stories and listened to some great Christmas music and then the kids went to PE to get some energy out! After PE, we had recess and we played a fun girls against boys winter holidays trivia game with Ms. Olson's class.
To end the day, we had popcorn and watched The Polar Express. It was a lot of fun!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Have a wonderful break! See you next year!
Mrs. Johnston
