Hi Parents!

Here is what we did today!

We did a winter rotation. We went to every Kindergarten classroom and did a fun winter activity! (Elizabeth)

We went to Mrs. Dixon’s classroom and made a little gingerbread house. (Mila)

We went to Mrs. Russo’s class and on all of our tables we made giant blizzards with shaving cream. (Eshan)

At the rotations we did a snowball fight in Mrs. Flanagin’s room and in Miss Henry’s room we did a Frosty the Snowman mask. (Addison)

After Mrs. Russo’s class we read There Was a Cold Lady Who Swallowed Some Snow with Mrs. Hotchkiss and played snowman bingo. (Yahna)

The 100th Day of School is quickly approaching!  Currently, the 100th Day of School is scheduled for Tuesday, January 31st (unless we have any snow days between now and then). Our class is planning a celebration for the 100th Day of School in which all learning activities will be centered around the number 100. 

As a part of our day, our class will be creating a “100th Day Museum.” Please have your child bring a collection of 100 things to school on Tuesday, January 31st.  The collection needs to be small enough for your child to carry to school.  Some examples might include 100 paperclips, cotton balls, pennies, cereal pieces, ribbons, beads, toothpicks, pencils, playing cards, etc.  Let your child use his/her imagination to come up with a unique, one of a kind collection. 

Our class will be displaying their collections on the 100th Day of School during math.           

In addition, on the 100th Day of School each student will create his/her own special snack of with 100 pieces of food (like a trail mix).  For this special snack, we would like to ask for  donations of the following:  pretzels, cereal (like cheerios/fruit loops), M&Ms, raisins or other dried fruit, mini marshmallows, goldfish or cheese-it crackers, animal crackers, teddy grahams, etc. (no nuts please) Please send in your snack donations by January 30th, so we can ensure we have enough snack for each student. You can send this in at any time. Thank you!

Have a great weekend!
