I hope everyone had an enjoyable Thanksgiving and continue to stay well.

The month of December will be filled with learning about celebrations around the world. The children will learn about Hanukkah, St. Nickolas Day in Germany, Australia’s traditions and Kwanza. If anyone has a tradition they would like to share please don’t hesitate to let me know. I would be happy to include any additions.

The children were so excited to help put up our Brown Bear 5 foot tall Christmas tree. They sorted the branches by color, spread the branches, and took turns waiting patiently. The sharing and teamwork was beautiful to see, it came out lovely. We will make many more ornaments to add.  They won’t realize it but will be building fine motor skills, using math by sorting, counting and patterning, aside from letting their creativity flow.

The letters of the month are Bb and Cc. I love how they ask every morning what are we going to work on today, when they come to the small group table. They are eager to learn.

December is a busy month for everyone. It is important to try to keep a consistent schedule, get rest, and eat healthy, so we can enjoy the spirit of the season.

Please don’t hesitate with any questions or concerns at sunsetacademybrownbears.com, I appreciate you all. 

Wishing you all a very Merry Holiday Season filled with love.

Remember to love em, hug em, laugh lots, and READ, READ, READ!

They grow fast! Ms Diane
