Holiday Traditions



Our little angel
  Students wrote letters to Santa today. They listened to Saint Nicholas letters written by previous third graders. It was exciting to hear letters that older brothers or sisters had written.

Adding an ornament to the school tree. (Library)

Kylie shared, "I got to help people make angels." Tayen said, 'The angels looked pretty." Coleton shared, "We got to paint the angels gold."Jeannie shared about making a angel, "That it was fun."  
Oh Christmas tree . . . oh Christmas tree . . .
Our class made ornaments to help decorate the tree in the library. It was a special time. Our school provided punch and assorted cookies. While holiday music was playing in the background.
