Christmas Party!

Hello Stupendous First Graders and Super First Grade Families!

I hope everyone has a wonderful and relaxing break!

THANK YOU so much for my wonderful wreath with 28 complete sentences and gift cards to my favorite places!  I am so touched by your thoughtfulness and generosity.  I can't wait to read all of your sentences; you kids are all such great writers!

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!  Thank you Mrs. Sullivan and Hannah!
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!  Thank you Mrs. Rowland and Mr. Johnston!
3. Movable Santa and Rudolph - The kids colored and cut Santa and Rudolph pieces and put them together with brads. They look very cute!  Thank you Mrs. Seiferth!
4. Finger Puppets - The kids colored different Christmas pictures, cut them out and taped them to turn them into finger puppets. They loved this! Thank you Mr. Sullivan!

After lunch we heard Christmas stories and solved Santa math. The kids went to PE and when they came back they had a special treat of hot chocolate and popcorn and we watched Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer. Thank you Mr. Tees, Mrs. Felix, Mrs. Johnson and Mrs. Rowland!

It was a great day!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Have a wonderful break! See you next year!
Mrs. Johnston
