AMAZING GINGERBREAD DAY!

Today was awesome! The kindergartners and 4th graders were a terrific team. We had SO MUCH FUN!

Rolling the gingerbread dough.

Decorating our cookies!

There were lots of cookies!

We built gingerbread houses!

We made a gingerbread craft.

We also made a gingerbread math game.

The final products came out great!

The students couldn't wait to get home and show off their gingerbread creations and EAT THEM!!!  Happy Holidays to all our Pine Glen Families. Enjoy the break!

Getting ready for our Big Gingerbread Day!

Yesterday Mrs. Visocchi's 4th graders came to Room 101 to read gingerbread stories with us. We read many different versions of the story to be ready for our big baking and building day. We are all very excited!

Electricity!

Today we learned a little about electricity! We learned about conductors and insulators and we made a closed circuit and lit a mini light bulb. Science learning is interesting, fun and hands on. Just what we needed before break!

Coloring Contest!

While watching the Polar Express the students were given the opportunity to do a coloring contest. All students chose to participate. We had some great results and a first and second place winner!

We had a REAL ballet dancer visit us!

Mrs. A's daughter Anna is home from college on break and she stopped by to visit the kindergartners. She has been dancing for over 15 years and she also does pointe. She wore a bar retina costume, let us touch her pointe shoes and she danced for us. We then danced one of our Nutcracker Dances for her. She was impressed by our Spanish Chocolate Dance and danced along with us!  Thank you Anna for sharing your talent with us and talking to us about dance.
