Christmas














We had so much fun in the month of December and we learned a lot too. We studied children around the word. We concentrated on the following six countries: Africa, Germany, Italy, Japan, Sweden, and the United States. We learned how these countries celebrate Christmas. We made lanterns for Japan, a wreath of lights for Sweden, and a manger scene for Italy.
We learned that the pods for chocolate grow in Africa...We got to taste it!!!

Christmas












We had a fun December in first grade. We studied Children Around the World. We learned how children in different countries celebrate Christmas. We made a special book and participated in many exciting activities. We practiced and performed a Christmas Cookie play. We even made cut out cookies to pass out to our audience.
