December is finally here! The cold weather and Christmas music is starting to get me excited for the month to come! We have just started to get in the Holiday mood with winter and Christmas themed books and projects. Before Thanksgiving we did a Reader's Theater performance for our parents. One of the scripts was Click, Clack, Moo: Cows that Type (which they thought was hilarious) so naturally we had to read Click, Clack, HO! HO! HO!
This is a great story to work with order of events. First, Duck gets stuck. Then, all the farm animals get stuck behind him. They also have to think of a clever way to get the animals out of the chimney.
To make the chimney we talked specifically about drawing the bricks. I think they really got the hang of it.
I'm sure the animals would enjoy their tails being pulled ;-)

Also, we did a quick activity to extend our Kindness Challenge from Blair Turner. Fun In First had the cutest idea for sharing ways to be kind. Since we have been working with weekly challenges all year this was a great way for us to write about a way we could be kind to others. Some of them used ideas that we had done earlier this year, but some came up with totally new ways to show kindness.
I love how it 'lights up' or hallway.
