We had a very busy December! Look over the last couple posts to see pictures of our Jesse Tree and Christmas program performance. We also worked hard on multiplication, wrote some poetry, read some Christmas stories, studied the Northeast region, and got a taste of our new science topic. And we still had some time for fun! We made winter themed Peep dioramas and drew pictures that extended a Christmas card. Can you find the cards in the posted pictures? The fourth graders did an excellent job working them into their drawings.
As fun as December was, I'm looking forward to a quiet January to get some good learning done!
Just a quick picture of our Jesse Tree. The students really enjoyed digging into the Bible and learning a story and sharing it with the class. The ornaments they created were darling! We saw everything from duck tape to glitter. It was so nice to have a daily devotional to remind us what Advent and Christmas are really all about.
The Fourth Graders were stars of the show with their performance in the Christmas Program. They were a traveling band of gypsies who sang and played their recorders and orff instruments. They had a lot to do but they managed to make it look easy. Many thanks to Ms. Romportl for teaching the fourth graders to sing and play so beautifully!
