We are learning about different ways people celebrate the holidays around the world. Our class will focus on Puerto Rico with Ms. Monica and that will be our presentation for the holidays around the world celebration. All are welcome to join us that day from 10:30-11:30.
We read both fiction and non-fiction books about bears this week. Ask your child to tell you what they know. Be sure to ask them why bears hibernate (difficult to find food) and ask them if leaving lunch boxes and trash accessible to the bears might make them decide not to hibernate and if they think this is good or bad and why.
Talk about any holiday customs you had in your family growing up and new ones that you have added.
