More Holidays

We read Jan Brett's The Mitten.  Here we are acting out the story.

Click on the book to visit Jan Brett's website and print your own masks to retell the story.

Here's our mitten.

 

The "animals" are getting all snug and cozy in the mitten.  The great bear sneezed and scattered the animals everywhere!

We traveled to England...

...and played the game "Pass the Parcel", an English game.

We painted mittens with symmetry.

We also watched "The Snowman" by R Briggs.  After the movie, we illustrated what happened at the beginning, middle, and end of the story.  Then we painted our own snowpeople, added details, and put on snowflakes with numbers.  In January, we will glue a snowball (cotton ball) on each number to count down the days of January.

We learned about Kwanzaa.  Here's a sample of the Kwanzaa mats that we weaved.

Do you like our kinaras?
