Christmas Celebrations

Polar Express Day!

Polar Express Day is a day to experience a special Christmas story in written and visual form.  Mrs. Hedberg, Mrs. Kinely and part of Mr.Meyers Class will be celebrating Polar Express Day on Friday, December 21st starting at 8:30AM. 

Where:  The combined classes will gather in Mrs. Kinley’s room!

What To Bring:  Students may  bring a blanket and pillow to curl up with and your favorite  breakfast treat to share with all during the movie version of our story.  Mrs. Hedberg and Mrs. Kinley will provide hot chocolate and marshmallows/whipping cream!!! 

What Will We Be Doing?:  We will read the award-winning book The Polar Express written by Chris Van Allsburg.  After reading the book, we will curl up with our blankets, enjoy our breakfast treats, and watch the movie version of the book!  Later in the day we will have a discussion on any differences noticed between the book and the movie!



                A GIFT EXCHANGE GAME: Our afternoon party will be from 1:10-2:40 following our performance of the 12 Dogs of Christmas song our class will lead at the assembly!! Please come watch from 12:30-1:10!!!!!!

 I plan to make Friday, December 21, a fun-filled, memory-making day!  We will have the Polar Express party in the morning, followed by our classroom Holiday party after lunch   We will do  a gift exchange  and a candy bar game as we read the Right Family Christmas story (there will be 5 golden ticket winners) I still need two more golden ticket winner  gifts if you can afford to send in an extra party prize!!)during the party.   Your child needs to bring a dollar store gift that for our gift exchanged .   Please make sure to send a wrapped gift by December 20th.  If your child is a girl please purchase a girl gift if your child is a boy please purchase a boy gift. Make sure to wrap and tag the gift boy or girl. If you are not able to send in a gift please let me know so that I can purchase gifts needed. I would like to make sure that there is a gift for each student.  If you have any questions, feel free to give me a call or send an email.  Thanks so much for your support of this fun activity.
