We have almost reached our food bank goal:

We learned 2 new vowel teams today, oi and ue.  We pretended to shout to other ships when we practiced oi and we pointed at our friends when we practiced ue.

Afterwards, we continued to talk about the Nativity Story.  Here is a video telling the story:

In Math, we worked on stories of 12.  For example:

-There are 10 walruses on an iceberg.  3 jump into the freezing ocean.  That leaves 7 on the iceberg. 

-Five snakes are slithering through the grass.  Along came 7 lizards to join them.  How many creatures are there?

-We also went on the website: http://www.gudli.com/kids/games/math-story.html

Finally, we ended our day down at Keyano rehearsing for the concert.  We did great.  As for tonight, here is the plan of attack:

• Dress in your Sunday best
• Arrive at Keyano at 6pm
• Bring your child to the door by the box office to drop them off
• If you only have a div one child, after the concert come and pick up your child backstage (this will be chaotic so please be patient)
• If you have a child in the div 2 concert you can leave your div 1 child backstage and we will look after them until after the concert.

Hope this helps with the craziness tonight and I hope you enjoy the concert.
