Check out pictures from last week! We learned about the Netherlands and Greenland. The students wrote letters to Santa; not what they wanted...but what they have done to be good and show kindness this year. They also decorated shoes for "Sinterklaas" and left them out overnight to find them filled with treats in the morning! Enjoy!
We also began our STEM challenge but will finish up on Monday. We read the book, Olive the other Reindeer and then tried to make reindeer fly...will send home ziplock baggies with their STEM projects soon so they can show you how they made Olive fly!
