One of my favourites is <i>Squirrel's New Year's Resolution</i> by Pat Miller. After reading this story, we discuss what a resolution is and brainstorm a few of our own.</div><div style="text-align: center;">I modified this activity I did a few years back to add 2024.

Start with a 2-column graph and 2 things to compare (we used green and orange buttons). Students add them to the graph and use the words "more", "less", "same" to describe their findings. It's easy to switch the materials or amounts - we prepared buttons, mini erasers and shells to use this week.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimf303PjpSMMdeQCNqu1MMPLylGxhQ3uUPYlq7kqws2ZK0VUrFJfS4sYGDiC_8WFLKfIWcljao8aGY9GIaeA84l-c4SbN3EpLTBK5rsy3r5GyoLFleN-4GMJFYCwN8gOokhF0n0NHEfJRVaKm73Q-OfH7hL4wS5MPZ5uoBj83Pi1MK1KR48neIJkbUfVo/s3024/graphing%20review.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="3024" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimf303PjpSMMdeQCNqu1MMPLylGxhQ3uUPYlq7kqws2ZK0VUrFJfS4sYGDiC_8WFLKfIWcljao8aGY9GIaeA84l-c4SbN3EpLTBK5rsy3r5GyoLFleN-4GMJFYCwN8gOokhF0n0NHEfJRVaKm73Q-OfH7hL4wS5MPZ5uoBj83Pi1MK1KR48neIJkbUfVo/s320/graphing%20review.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I also have a bunch of ready-made graphs students can choose from to survey their peers.

Although it's a lot of prep work (you definitely need to be organized!) the morning ran so smoothly and the students loved it!</div><div style="text-align: center;">There were 5 Christmas craft centres we set up around the room and a snack centre set up in the hallway. Many thanks to the parent helpers for your assistance in making this morning such a success!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Come take a look at our Christmas craft morning!</div><div style="text-align: center;">You can click <b><a href="https://www.instagram.com/mrsalbanesesclass/" target="_blank">HERE</a></b> to visit my Instagram page and see a video walk through of all of these centres! Click the "Xmas Craft Day" highlights.</div><div style="text-align: center;">Our students were placed into six groups (we colour coded their groups and gave them labels to make things easy) and rotated. Each centre lasted 20 minutes so the entire craft morning took 2 hours to complete. Out in the large hallway, we wrote each student's name on a large piece of painting paper. This was used as their personal drying mat. So when they finished a craft, students walked their craft down the hall and placed it on their drying mat. So much easier than sorting all of these crafts at the end of the day!</div><div style="text-align: center;">We also prepped a Christmas colouring book for students to colour should they finish their craft early. The colouring pages are a<a href="https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/FreeDownload/Christmas-Coloring-Pages-FREEBIE-6305022" target="_blank"> FREE download from Rainbow Sprinkle Studio</a>.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><u>Christmas Cookie Snack Centre</u></b></div><div style="text-align: center;">Out in the hallway we set up small bistro tables for students to sit with their friends and have snack. We had parent helpers hand out a peanut/nut-free cookie and a glass of chocolate milk as well as read <i>'Twas the Night Before Christmas</i> story.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiB53GGqOkiweZOPYXJf1z_sDTJY496TZtWqJNnV0w9YtV4TxCAqaureh3PuONSAZ5e-ylOGMI3FJIT5YjISzbyMgwhUT3yEVd3txqkM83Cqplie1tPHZPp9kc2vurz_fMake0mtzXTypk4xtp5h49tcnZhD2_rBICLfqkItgNwip1ikHGoKnAudjNwMA/s3024/snack%20centre2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="3024" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiB53GGqOkiweZOPYXJf1z_sDTJY496TZtWqJNnV0w9YtV4TxCAqaureh3PuONSAZ5e-ylOGMI3FJIT5YjISzbyMgwhUT3yEVd3txqkM83Cqplie1tPHZPp9kc2vurz_fMake0mtzXTypk4xtp5h49tcnZhD2_rBICLfqkItgNwip1ikHGoKnAudjNwMA/s320/snack%20centre2.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjXVS3M4eUY48KdW48k2Sbh4DHi7O5RtVNyrl1ZQQZGpsARrrJsnQ0T0j6Vu18J1nPCg5r5gv-ZOMYcbefaMsNWnql7cJUYho1l4epjUgfs47OMKpGWw3ESEnId3az_elbH8_oc8Qjr5GNG-rPDIBG9zFk-IQ-m9sUm2K9HK1oils1onwZJpArTYdZMTI/s3024/snack%20centre.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="3024" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjXVS3M4eUY48KdW48k2Sbh4DHi7O5RtVNyrl1ZQQZGpsARrrJsnQ0T0j6Vu18J1nPCg5r5gv-ZOMYcbefaMsNWnql7cJUYho1l4epjUgfs47OMKpGWw3ESEnId3az_elbH8_oc8Qjr5GNG-rPDIBG9zFk-IQ-m9sUm2K9HK1oils1onwZJpArTYdZMTI/s320/snack%20centre.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><u>Elf Hat</u></b></div><div style="text-align: center;">Students made an elf hat!

We have parents joining us too! Our students will be making 5 Christmas crafts (rotating at each of the 5 table top centres) and our last centre will be snack - complete with a Christmas cookie, chocolate milk and a special story!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">In our classroom this week, you can definitely feel the Christmas magic!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Last week we overheard a lot of our students discuss the Christmas scents we had left out. Some liked the smells, others did not. Many students were talking about their own (real) Christmas trees at home and how they had a distinct smell! So my DECE brought in some real Christmas greenery to add to the Science and Discovery Centre to explore using our senses.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><u>Here's what we planned at our centres for this week:</u></div><div style="text-align: center;"><u><br /></u></div><div style="text-align: center;">Can you decorate the Christmas tree using loose parts?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

We noticed that one gourd was "very soft" last week and when one student went to hold it, it broke open! This gave us the opportunity to look inside of it:</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">"It looks like bread!" - E.R.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">"It's actually really soft and fluffy." - V.S.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">"I think you can maybe cook and eat this." - D.G.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">This week we are going to cut open the top of our pumpkin (and maybe other gourds) to look at what's inside!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
