Weekly Greetings!
Just two short weeks and we will all be off for Christmas break! The days go by so quickly, and last week was even faster with the unexpected day off on Wednesday. Through we work hard to progress through each grade level expectations every day that school is in session, there is still time for fun movement activities and creative play. We even practice phonics with movement and song. Below are a couple of pictures taken while we were doing one of the many movement songs used throughout the week.
On Friday, there was Show and Tell and the students really enjoy seeing what their classmates bring to share. They are all getting better at sharing about the item they brought and there are always lots of questions from others in the class.
Despite the power outage on Friday afternoon, the students in attendance worked on an art project that we will but together as a Christmas door decoration. It was a bit dark in the class with only window light, but I was able to snap a few pictures while the kids were busy.
Unfortunately, I will have to be in Fairbanks for a medical reason on Wednesday this week when our class will be participating an "Instant Challenge" with other schools around the state through visual technology. They will be investigating the effects of earthquakes by building a structure made of marshmallows and toothpicks on a jello base. Also that day, there will be the "Athabascan Culture and Language Gathering" at 2:15 pm. Please try to join the students during that time if your schedules allow.
Have a great week!
Kind Regards,
Julie Brown
