Guest Reader Day


Mr. Padevic, our director of Special Ed. read to our morning class on Guest Reader Day. He read the book "Snow Bear". Mrs. O'Malley, Holmes School's Administrative Assistant read to the afternoon class. We love having guest readers!




We made snowpals! Everyone had a chance to be a snowpal. We rolled them and dressed them up. Ms. Chris even had a turn! The students loved dressing up their teacher, turning her into a snowpal!


February's study will be Pets. Please send in a stuffed animal to add to our pet store!

We are starting the new year with a study on winter clothing. We opened a clothing store in our Dramatic Play area.

We put pairs of mittens on our January placemats.
