                                December Updates
            Mrs. Stephens' and Mrs. Hayman's Spunky Monkeys 2009-2010


   Get ready to fly this month!  It will be a very fun month as well as a 
busy one!!  The students began December by traveling and "flying" to vistit 
Russia to see how children celebrate the winter holidays.  Each day this 
month, the students will be "traveling" around the world (to different 
kindergarten classrooms) to hear and participate in the customs shared in 
that particular country.  It is very exciting!!!

Here are some upcoming events for December to remember:

Dec. 1st- begin Holidays Around the World
        - watch Encore performance in the cafeteria
Week of Dec. 1st- learn about needs vs. wants
                - Participate in Gingerbread activities
Dec.  5th- Jingle Jog (40 percent of our class has signed up to participate)
Week of Dec. 8th- learn how students around the world celebrate with lights, 
                  how gifts are not always "bought", and sharing
Week of Dec. 15th- Day and Night sky, winter, and times of day
Dec. 17th- Holiday Party

I hope to see you all at the Jingle Jog this Saturday!

Thank you for being so involved in your child's learning!

Sincerely,
Deborah Stephens
