Merry Christmas to You and Yours

from...

Mrs. Tenery's Class!!

May your holidays be bright and your New Year filled with many blessings!!

Please keep Kyle in your prayers over the holiday season.

He's been home sick all week.

We have all sure missed him and pray for him to start feeling better very soon!

I will look forward to seeing everyone on

The kids are SURE they're on the NICE list, but they asked Santa just to be sure!!

Thank you for your generosity!

The kids worked hard making their 

Advent Chains 

to count down the days to Jesus' Birthday!

Each night they should tear off a link and say a prayer!

In no time it will be Christmas!!!  Joy to World!!

Jacey and Karis show off their red and green chains!!

We sure enjoyed celebrating 

Luke's 6th Birthday!!  

We sang and ate YUMMY cookie cake with him!!

With suitcases and passports in hand, we traveled around the world to learn how different countries celebrate Christmas!

We "flew" to Italy, The Netherlands (Holland), France, Sweden, Russia, England, and Germany!

The Gingerbread Man jumped onto the globe and pointed right at the country we've been learning about this week...Mexico!

We had fun ending our week learning about Mexico by celebrating with a piñata!

See all the pictures below of us taking our best swings at it!!

 The Gingerbread Man has been sneaking all over our classroom!  He knows these kids love gingerbread cookies!  We all love searching for him each morning!

Kyle lost his second tooth this week!

We sure are giving the Tooth Fairy a lot of work!

We enjoyed singing and dancing this week in Big Chapel with the High School Praise Band!

Yummmm....we cooked again this week with 

Mrs. McCarthy!

Since we have been learning about Mexico this week, we had a lesson in tortilla and quesadilla making!  The class voted that flour tortillas are more tasty and then helped make cheese quesadillas!

We read The Gingerbread Man in class yesterday.

This morning after P.E., we came into the classroom and found the Gingerbread Man hiding in the "O" in our "Welcome" sign!

He hides because he's a little worried we may eat him!  Yum...we tasted gingerbread cookies yesterday afternoon so I think that makes him nervous!

We'll post more pictures this week showing all the places we find him hiding in our classroom!

Happy Thanksgiving!!

We enjoyed a DELICIOUS feast with our 6th Grade Big Buddies from Mrs. Gingras' Class!  The Kindergarteners were the Pilgrims and the 6th Graders were the Indians...even the teachers participated by dressing the parts!  

Thank you to all the parents who contributed food...everything was wonderful.
