Baking up something special....bakery theme

 We have switched themes to the bakery; we will get to experience real baking over the next three weeks. The bakery theme always brings along fun writing oppourtunies, lots of counting chips and sprinkles, and becoming a circle cutting professional!

How tall is the Octopus Class (measuring with snowflakes)

 

Walking in a winter wonderland

 We have officially switched to winter in the Octopus Class. Terrible season, great theme :)

Last stop is Holland

 Our final stop is Holland. We learned:

1. Christmas is celebrated on December 6th.

2. Some families have a feast after the Christmas service.

3. They use pine cones and frosted bells for decorations.

4. They sing Christmas carols.

5. Santa Claus is called St. Nicholas

To remember our time in Holland, we made (cut and glittered) a frosted bell.
