We had a wonderful time traveling to our last location in our passport; The North Pole. We viewed the Polar Ice Caps through Google Earth and also looked at the mountains and land near the North Pole. We learned about the tundra and many of the animals that live there. We also saw many pictures of arctic animals that have white fur to camouflage themselves in the ice and snow. We loved reading The Polar Express and then watching the movie in our pajamas! We compared the book and the movie and discussed all the story elements like the characters, setting, problem, solution, and the beginning, middle, and end of the story.
We had an amazing Winter Party and enjoyed seeing you all there. Thank you again for your donations and volunteering too!
See you again on January 6th! Don't forget about Wolfie's Winter Challenge during the break.
Next Week's Themes: New Year's Resolutions, Winter, Reading Stamina, Guided Reading, Comparing Numerals and Sets, & The Mitten by Jan Brett
