Dear Parents, Last week I was so impressed by how well the children have improved at making up their own stories. The first time we tried this skill, they didnt quite understand, but on Thursday they made up an AMAZINGLY creative story all on their own! They are also doing really well with the new vocabulary quiz at the end of our daily story time. This is our last week before Winter Break, our theme will be Christmastime. We will end the week with a Christmas party on Friday. Please keep reviewing skills with your child we will be doing our second student assessment when they return in January. I hope that you and yours have a wonderful Holiday Break! - Ms. Megan
