Welcome to December in Kindergarten!

Our theme this month was Holidays Around the World. We focused on Christmas, Hanukkah and Kwanza.

Our field trip was to Hillsdale Mall to decorate a Christmas Tree (check them out upstairs by Mervyns). After we went to brunch at IHOP. We had great parent support for this trip. Thanks to all the parents that came along.

 

 We also made gingerbread houses this month... they were adorable.... click here to see them!

 

Hannukah

 

We played the dreidel game... it was a little too difficult the traditional way, so we made up our own rules!!

 

 

 We also made and tasted latkes and applesauce... most of us thought they were delicious!!
 

 

 

 We made edible menorahs our of celery, cream cheese, raisins, and pretzel sticks

 

 

Language Arts

 

 To go along with our pocket chart, we made a mini book to take home and read to our families. We used stickers on each page.. fun fun fun!

we played a fun matching game.... matching beginnig sounds to pictures

Math

 

 We played a fun activity called "over the top". We used different sized bags and estimated how many scoops of macaroni it would take to fill each bag until it spilled out over the top of the bag!

To the tune of "Thumbkin"

Gifts for our families....

We made wreaths out of glue, pretzels, and glitter.... when they dried, our teachers put our photo in the middle, and made them into ornaments...
