Winter Unit week 1

We started exploring the season of winter. We spent time outside experiencing winter weather first hand. Thursday we had our first early release (the day started out at 48 degrees and by 2:00 had dropped to 34 degrees with freezing rain) so the AM group had class and the PM class did not. 

Our BookWorm readers read us a story called The Biggest Snowman Ever and each child took their own copy home to enjoy.

Outdoor fun with friends:

Indoor fun with friends:

On Thursday the AM class heard a story about snow soup and then we made some. 

Next week we will continue to explore winter and have Family Fun Day on Thursday. Also no school on Friday--end of the first semester. Oh my goodness, half the year done already!
