Reading with someone. Taking time to look at pictures, tell a story to a friend. Building early literacy skills; story telling and communication. 
December weather has been good! Sunny days are the best. 
Students are so creative when free building and exploring in the classroom. They use and build their imagination, problem solving skills, communication skills and take turns and learn to share. 
Lots of perseverance when cup stacking. 
Measuring in the classroom.. am I taller than the cups?
The flannel board provides a lot of vocabulary building and story telling. 
A new sensory table of Christmas fun. Scoop, pour, find and tell. 
Lots of fun building the elves and they have kept an eye on us all month!
Building lego cars that have mustaches.

Santa's sleigh and reindeer.
We worked on our paper chain patterns. Making these had us working on fine motor skills and thinking about a pattern and making sure it repeated three times. 
Which peep will dissolve/melt first? We did find out that hot water makes a candy cane disappear faster than cold water.
