HOLIDAYS AROUND THE WORLD

A LITTLE ELF ON THE SHELF ACTION IN OUR CLASSROOM. SOME DAYS I THINK THE LADIES IN MY ROOM WERE MORE EXCITED THEN THE KIDS!

FOR COMMUNITY BUILDING WE WROTE ABOUT HOW WE CAN BRING KINDNESS TO THE WORLD.

OUR CURRICULUM (UNIQUE LEARNING SYSTEM) CELEBRATED HOLIDAYS AROUND THE WORLD IN DECEMBER.

WE DISCUSSED KEY WORDS OF HANUKKAH AND HOW THE HOLIDAY IS CELEBRATED.

WE ALSO LABELLED THE MENORAH.

THE KIDS MADE A DREIDEL CRAFT BY USING PAINT AND MARBLES. THEY CHOSE THREE COLORS TO DECORATE.

WE READ ABOUT KWANZAA AND DISCUSSED WITH THE KIDS HOW IT IS CELEBRATED.

 WE LABELLED THE KINARA.

 THE KIDS MADE A CRAFT OF THE SEVEN PRINCIPALS OF KAWANZAA.

THE KIDS LOVE FILD FOLDERS, WE HAVE THEM FOR EVERY MONTH.

WE LABELLED HOW WE WOULD GET SANTA OUT OF A CHIMNEY. THE KIDS DREW CHOICES, THEY ACTUALLY WERE PRETTY CLOSE TO THEIR PERSONALITIES!

WE DISCUSSED CHRISTMAS AND HOW IT IS CELEBRATED.

AFTER READING ABOUT LAS POSADAS, WE TALKED ABOUT IMPORTANT WORDS IN RELATION TO THE HOLIDAY. WE ALSO USED A BUBBLE MAP.
