What have the 1M O.W.L.S Been Up To?

Happy New Year! I hope that everyone enjoyed their winter break and had fun celebrating the holidays.We had a great first day back. The children made resolutions. Stop by and take a peek at their resolutions on our bulletin board.

We have finished publishing our books. Our Publishing Party will be on Thursday, January 19th at 8:30 a.m. An invitation will be sent home this week. The children worked so hard on their books and are so excited to share them with you.

The Lower School Winter Concert was wonderful! The children did such a fabulous job! Their singing warms the heart!

                                          

        














We also had a great time at our Winter Party! Thanks so much to our fabulous class moms who made this such a special day for the children! The children entered into a winter wonderland complete with a dusting of snow! They played winter bingo, made an adorable penguin pail, watched a winter movie, ate yummy treats and had lunch. They even got to wrap each other up into snow people! They had sooooo much fun!!!!

A snowy welcome into our class party!

Bingo!

Let's make a snowgirl!

 Look at some of our snowpeople!

We used two fun Apps this week. One was Puppet Pals. You create a story using your own voice and you choose your characters and setting. The children had fun creating and listening to their classmate's stories. We also used a REALLY fun Ap called Don't Let the Pigeon Drive this Ap. It is based on the book Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus by Mo Williams. They create silly versions of this funny story by using their own voice and making choices. They had a blast!!
Shake the IPad to get the pigeon to do silly stuff!



Enjoy the rest of the winter break!
