December 2nd - 6th

 I hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday!  Before we left for our Thanksgiving holiday break, the kindergarten students had a blast celebrating with their classmates.  We started our day with watching "A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving" with our other Early Childhood friends.  Next we went into the cafeteria and had a "Charlie Brown" feast just like they did in the movie!  We celebrated with pretzel sticks, popcorn, bread, and M&M's!

















A huge thank you to all the families who sent in a toy for our Toys for Tots drive!  The HCA community did a fantastic job providing for those in need during the holiday season!


The Kindergarten students are ready for the holiday season!  Each student took a turn to add an ornament to our classroom Christmas tree!  They were a big help in making our classroom festive!






















ALL ABOARD!!!!  Just a quick reminder, Wednesday, December 11th, will be our Kindergarten pajama day to end our unit on the Polar Express!  Students can wear their pajamas and we will watch the movie, Polar Express!
