We had our pottery project yesterday.  The kids had a great time and are eagerly waiting for their dishes to be fired so they can glaze them.  We also wrote letters to Santa and mailed them to the North Pole on Tuesday.  We are hoping to receive letters back from Santa before Christmas break.

Shayla (Blue Group) won the Catch the Vision Award this month and was presented the award at the assembly last week.



Today we wrapped up our study of pilgrims.  We read several books about pilgrims and completed a venn diagram comparing and contrasting pilgrims to modern day.



This week we also wrote about things that we are grateful for using the transitional words: first, second, third, and lastly.
