Chrsitmas books.
Grade One -Two
The Christmas spirit is alive and well
here. We are learning many Christmas
words at our reading centres. We are also
enjoying sharing the Christmas stories we
have written.
Paula Kwan wrote this one :
One day, Santa was watching TV and he
got hungry. He went to the kitchen. He
looked in Mrs. Claus' fridge. He found Mrs.
Claus' cookies in the fridge. He ate and
ate. Then he ate and ate and ate and ate.
He ate so many cokkies that he got fat. He
dropped the galss bowl. Mrs. Claus ran
down and said, "Look at yourself. What
have you done to my bowl?" He rode on his
sled. He fell down. He's going to lose
weight.
Grade Two -Three
This class is right in the Christmas spirit
and are going to Christmas activities each
afternoon. We are enjoying working with
our friends each day.
Grade Three -Four
Grade Three -Four is getting ready for
the Christmas season. Our class put up our
tree and we decorated it in art class. We
also made Christmas balls with balloons,
thread and liquid starch.
We are finishing up our units on detec-
tives and are just about ready to start our
Christmas Activities. We are studying
about Norway and their customs there.
