Froliche Weinachten! Merry Christmas from Germany!




It was an exciting day for students as today they received their pedometers from Mr. Grant. A note is coming home explaining how  and when to record your child's steps. 




Today in social studies we began our holidays around the world studies with a visit to Germany.The flag is black, yellow, and red- Jocelyn
Germany is in Europe- Dominic
Bratwursts are yummy- Keighan
They say Froliche Weinachten which means Merry Christmas!- Cameron
They started  putting up Christmas trees 500 years ago- TJ
They call them Tannenbaums- Addison
They made the first gingerbread houses in Germany- Henry T.




Look at our beautiful classroom Tannenbaum!click here to hear "Oh Tannenbaum"


In math we worked on comparing lengths. We used different lengths of paper to order and make these snazzy Tannenbaums.













These pictures were taken at this years Christmas Market in Frankfurt, Germany.
Mrs. Master's stepdaughter is living there and shared these with us.


We were super listeners as Mrs. Stein from the Big Bend library shared some magical holiday stories with us from Norway!
She also invited everyone to a free and fun event at the Lions Club Thursday night. Santa and Mrs. Claus will be there! Your child is bringing info home tonight. They all want to attend!


It has been a great day made even greater with CJ and Jaxon completing sight word lap one. On to lap two!
Congratulations!
