~ Gingerbread Glyphs ~

Today the kids created their own unique Gingerbread boys and girls. They are called "glyphs" because every part of each Gingerbread person is unique to the specific kiddo who created it! Some of the attributes included age, number of sisters & brothers, birthday month, and others. Hope you can come into the school before Christmas break and see them all!

Hockaday Museum Fieldtrip

Thursday we enjoyed spending our morning viewing an exhibit of Blackfeet Indian art at The Hockaday. The kids learned a lot about the amazing artwork of the Blackfeet People. After our museum tour, it was time for a wonderful hands-on art project where we learned about still life art. Here is a small sample of the terrific work!

Today we read The Polar Express in class and discussed what we would each want if we were given the First Gift of Christmas. Come into the school and see the beautiful quilt we created that is hanging in the hallway!
