Hello Precious Owls. We had a wonderful week in the owl room. It snowed on Tuesday. We had a great time. In the owl room we painted a snowflake with a cool sponge paint brush. We also put glitter on it. We love this. We painted with shaving cream on the easel. It turned into finger painting and my Tuesday owls explored by spreading it on the windows. FUN, FUN. We read our winter books and enjoyed the class made book about things we do at school. It was a popular read. We explored with ice in the sensory. This was exciting. In Chapel we got to throw bean bags at the Wall of Jericho. What a great week we had.

Remember there is no school this week. We have our conferences. If you need to bring your owl that is fine. They can play while we talk.

The following week is Valentines. Please plan on sending a Valentine for each of the kids in your child's class. We will make a little something to put the notes in. I will provide a valentine snack.

See you guys at conferences.

Thanks
Ms. Tracee :)

Hello Sweet Owls~~~



I hope all of you are feeling ok. I know alot of stuff is going around. Despite all the illness at my house we had a great week in the Owl Room. It snowed on Thursday!! Did you see it? It was not even cold. The Thursday Owls really enjoyed the snow and the fast hill. In class we put a face on our snowman and talked about face attributes. We played with our snowmen and winter ducks in the snow. We climbed through the belly of a whale in Chapel just like Jonah.

I look forward to next week were we will explore the snow and cold.



Thank you all for your patience with my families illnesses. I hear that everyone does fine while I am gone.



Remember Snow Date has changed to Tuesday @9:15. Wednesday Owls are welcome.



Love

Hello Sweet Owls. Are we enjoying a cold winter day? Owls like to hide in there trees and stay warm so please stay in your "trees" and stay warm today. What a great week to study snowmen. We read How to build a snowman and built our own snowman. We worked on putting a face together and talked about a happy and sad face. We played in the cotton "snow" and discovered there were snowmen and winter ducks in the snow. We dug through the snow and found and ducks and snowmen and sorted them. We also counted them. They did a GREAT job with this. We drew with markers and snowmen stickers. They love this. We talk about colors while we open and close the markers. We painted a snowman and put glitter on it. SO FUN. We went to motor movement and Chapel where we found baby Jesus under the star just like the Wise Men. We made a candle and a star snack. WE HAD A WONDERFUL WEEK.

I am so proud of my owls everyone did a great job at drop off, I had very few tears. YEAH!! Everyone was talking more and it seemed they grew up over break.

I look forward to next week we will explore cold and snow.



I have the best job and it was nice to get back to it.

We are getting ready for the second half of Owl Class. Can you believe it? We will start January with a study on snow and winter. Soo Fun!!
I have a few owls who will be turning 2 this month. Please bring a birthday snack to share. I love to see my owls grow.
Please keep in mind that there will probably be tears at drop off, my sweet precious owls will be really attached to their mothers. We will do our best to keep it as painless as possible.
There are new pictures on the website from Christmas.
Enjoy,
See you this week.

We decorated our Christmas ornamanet for the class tree, we also made some "secret projects". We saw all the animals. SOOO FUN. We rode Larry the Camel and Jack the Donkey. We also got to pet the sheep and a 3 week old lamb. We had so much fun. We played outside in the beautiful cool weather and played with the Manger scene.

It is Christmas in the owl class. We had a fun week talking about baby Jesus. We painted a Christmas tree, and explored with Christmas stamps. We played in the ribbons and bows. So fun. We read First Christmas and Five Little Christmas Trees. We explored the nativity scene and sang Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star. What sweet voices. In Chapel we followed the star and found baby Jesus and rang bells as we sang songs. In motormovement we played with the balls and parachute. We love this.

I look forward to next week when we have the live Nativity Scene. Come ride the camel. We will be working on a Christmas surprise next week.

Take a deep breath and try to find some Christmas peace this week.

God Bless

Happy Thanksgiving my precious owls. We had a great Big Picnic. We all loved the puppets and fish sticks. The ketchup was the best. We had a great week exploring Turkeys. We marble painted a Turkey. We had Turkeys in our corn and we counted and talked about the different kind of turkeys. We sang our Turkey song and oh course we Gobbled. We talked with Mr. Turkey about his feathers and hat. We made a handprint turkey and painted with fall cookie cutters. So Fun. We also got to play outside in the owl like weather. We had another great week in the owl class. I am hearing ALL of my owls language improving weekly. It is so fun to see brain growth. What a smart group.

My prayer for all of you is that you have a restful and peaceful Thanksgiving. I will miss my Tuesday Owls because we will already be traveling to Grandmas. I am excited for a little family time. Rest up and get ready for Christmas.

Take Care and God Bless,
Ms. Tracee
