December Schedule

December 9: I will be at a workshop from 12:00 - 3:15
December 17: Polar Express Day (12:30-3:00) Children may wear pajamas and bring a sleeping bag/blanket and/or a pillow

Polar Express Day is a fun afternoon for the children. After lunch, the children "buy" tickets for 10 cents. Once they have found the correct amount of money they will receive a ticket to board the Polar Express Train. The "train" is in the hallway, where they will find seats lined up in two rows. They will listen to the story and be surprised by Santa at the end of their "ride." After the train ride they will arrive to the "North Pole" (their classroom) where they will be served hot chocolate. After their hot chocolate, they will watch the movie with K, 2nd, and 3rd grade in the gym. This activity will take the entire afternoon. The children really enjoy it and it is a fun way to end the 2nd quarter and welcome Christmas.
