Kindergarten/ Neily and Campbell

 We are moving right along with the winter celebrations.  The Special Events Committee met today to ensure that December is going to be so much fun for everyone.  The winter celebrations are all moving along as well.

Kindergarten started the day creating our own movements and having our classmates copy them.  We are working on building confidence and increasing our ability to take risks.  Each class began recording the vocals to our carols.  I am including the links to our carols with hopes that you can practice them at home.

Mrs. Conley's class is working on the song Decorate the Christmas Tree.  Here is a link for the song... Decorate The Christmas Tree.  

Mrs. Mask's morning class are working on the song Jingle Bells.  However we have added a new verse that isn't quite the usual. We do the Dashing Through the Snow verse, then the chorus and then we sing this:

                                Now the ground is white, and the night is young.

                                Take your friends tonight, and sing a sleighing song.

                                Just get a bobtail bay, get ready for a run.

                                Then hitch him to an open sleigh, and now we'll have some fun. 

If you could practice that verse with the kids that would be amazing!! 

Mrs. Mask's afternoon class has been working on the song Must Be Santa.  Here is a link for the song...

Must Be Santa.

Mr. Neily's class was the last class to watch the Mickey Mouse Haunted House that we created.  Everyone was really proud of the work they have done and we are excited to share it.  I will be making a Google Classroom assignment soon so that the students can share it with their families. We also had some fun creating some sports scenes.  Every student was proud to present what they had come up with. 

The song that Mr. Neily's class has been working on is called December Around the World.  It is probably one of the hardest songs because they will be singing in 4 different languages as well as English. I am really hoping you can spend some time at home listening to the song and getting it into your head so that we can record it.  Here is the link... December Around the World

Mrs. Campbell's class was lucky to have Mrs. Felstrom teach them today.  We warmed up out body with some dancing and then we played some fun carols on the Boomwhackers.  We finished the class by practicing I Want A Hippopotamus For Christmas.  We almost have all of the lyrics down and are ready to record next week.  It would be helpful if the students could practice the song though before then. Here is the link... I Want A Hippo.

We were also talking in class about the video we were going to film and I was hoping that you might have a small box (one that the students can dance with) or gift bag that you wouldn't mind wrapping and bringing in (empty of course) for your student to dance with.  I do have a few at school we can use but not enough.  It would be great if we could have those in by next Thursday. Thank you so much!
