December Holidays

We had a great time learning about Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and Christmas.  We made Menorah's, and played Dreydl and made delicious Hanukkah Latke's.  We made Mkekas and Kinaras for Kwanzaa.  We had a school wide holiday program; we were snowflakes.  We made stockings and ornaments for Christmas and Mrs. Milam came and read us the book Gingerbread Friends by Jan Brett.  Then we got to decorate gingerbread cookies, graph our first bite (the right leg was the winner of most first bites) and then eat a most delicious treat.

Thank you Mrs. Milam.  That was a fun and delicious activity.  You are the best!!!

It was a busy and fun December.
