Today was our 10th day of the 12 Days of Winter. Today, the page in our book said, "On the 10th day of winter, my teacher gave to me, 10 holes for stitching." We made mittens, that turned out very cute, if we do say so ourselves... The kids used large needles and yarn to stitch around the outsides of the felt mitten cut-outs, and then decorated them with buttons and pompoms. Check out their creation in their backpack today!

After our sewing, we headed up to the computer lab for our time there for reading and math practice. When we came back down, we had a very short Morning Meeting, and read our new Star of the Week poster (nice job, Sasha!). We then read two "mitten" books - The Mitten, and The Missing Mitten. After that, we had Choice Time, and then it was time to bundle everyone up and go home.

Stay warm!
