Mrs. Carpenter's Kindergarten!

Merry Christmas from Mrs. Carpenter's Kindergarten! We have been busy! Today's update includes..

Reindeer Friday

The Gingerbread Man visited our classroom & SANTA

Third Graders performed Goldilock's Christmas for us

Our Polar Express Party

Reading with our Fourth Grade Reading Buddies

The following pictures are from Reindeer Fun Friday, last Friday. We made Rudloph out of popsicle sticks, made Magical Reindeer food, and read a reindeer story & colored a reindeer.

SANTA surpised us! We got to tell him what we want for Christmas and he gave us a treat! It was a sled made out of a milky way, two candy canes and a teddy bear!

Our Class with Santa!

The Third Graders performing Goldilock's Christmas.

We were practicing being a good audience. ;)

Just changed into our pajamas and ready for the Polar Express!

Each student got a "golden ticket" to enter the Polar Express (pretending), just like the boy in the story!

70 Kindergarteners in my classroom engaged in watching the Polar Express... we took a break to have a snack of chocolate milk and cookies. They also got a bell to ring, just like the little boy in the story!

Every Thursday we travel to Mrs. Gigax's Fourth grade class for Reading Buddies. During this time, we pair each student up with their buddy and they read stories to one another. Both the K kids and 4th graders love this time. Ask your child about it. Here are several pictures of our kiddos with their buddies. :)
