The most exciting news to share is that our classroom has gained 4 computers for students to use. These computers came from the high school computer lab. I also had a Donors Choose project funded. From this project our classroom received ten high quality headphones and an audio hub. The audio hub will allow up to 6 students to listen to the iPad at once. They will be able to listen to texts read to them.
We spent most of December learning about Polar Regions -- the Arctic and the Antarctic. We learned about the differences between the two areas and how animals survive in them.
The kids did a great job with the Christmas program. They looked so nice, too!
The students earned December's class compliment celebration -- a popcorn party! I was one of four staff members who volunteered to pop popcorn for the school. It gave our microwave quite a workout
The students worked really hard on Christmas present for their parents/grandparents. We hope you liked them!
Two days before break we had a hot chocolate reading party. I put a video of a fireplace on our promethean board. We turned the lights off and students read while enjoying their hot chocolate.

The students had a lot of fun decorating cookies during their Christmas party.
The staff had an Ugly Sweater Contest that day. Mr. Strauman tied for first place. He had ornaments in his beard!
