Writing Letters

We wrote letters to friends or family we were not going to see over the holidays. It was so fun writing the letters and the addressing the envelopes. Then we walked to the nearest mailbox and dropped our letters inside.

Gingerbread Houses

We made gingerbread houses. We used graham crackers and frosting to make the houses. Then we decorated them with all types of candy. They were beautiful to look at and yummy to eat!

Kwanzaa





We learned about Kwanzaa. People put corn on a mat called a Mkeka for how many children are in the family. They use a candle holder called a Kinera. The Kinera has eight candles. There are three greens, three reds and one black. Kwanzaa starts on December 26th and ends on January 1st. Happy Kwanzaa!

Tangrams

We tried to make a square with seven tangram shapes. It was hard at first but we helped each other. Then we used our tangram shapes to make different animals.
