Dear Parents,
Our room and hall look more like the winter than it does outside. We painted and cut out snowflakes that are on the windows. Look at the hall and see our snowmen made out of marshmallows and cotton. Everyone illustrated “5 Happy Snowmen”. Make sure your child recites it to you when it comes home on Monday.
The class had a great time on Mitten Day. We designed our own matching mittens. They are hanging in the room. We graphed our mittens based on their different attributes. Our mitten patterns are being sent home today. We graphed our favorite kind of weather. The majority of the students chose sunny.
Waffle day was a great success. We ate every last bite. We decided we really are good cooks.
