We hope you all have a wonderful Christmas break. Enjoy this time with family and friends, and travel safely if your celebrations take you out of the city. We look forward to seeing you all in the new year!

Merry Christmas!

We wanted to wish you a Merry Christmas from the Angels and Shepards of Room 201!

And from the silly goof balls of Room 201 ... 

Thank you for sharing your children with us! They are an absolute pleasure to have in our class.

Room 204's Hot Coco Party

We've been on our best behavior now that Christmas is near. We know that Santa and his Elfie's all across the city have been checking in on us. The children in room 204 filled their marble jar and Miss Malaney and Miss Garcia surprised them with a Hot Coco Party! The students drank hot coco and decorated snowflake ornaments. Here are some pictures of all the fun we had!

Connor made a toast and drank at the same time!

Cheers!

Tommy couldn't get enough hot coco!

 

Dress Rehearsal

Today was our official dress rehearsal for the Christmas pageant! The 2nd Grade looked and sounded lovely. Our 2nd grade boys even got a very nice compliment from Mrs. Shiba. She said they "Stole the show!" We can't wait to show off all our hard work tomorrow at 2pm in the Parish Hall. See you then!

An Advent Angel Visit

Each year the teachers at ICSJ celebrate the season of Advent by participating in Advent Angels. Nurse Kari was Ms. Donahue's Advent Angel and came to read to our class! She knew how much we enjoyed Peanuts, so she read A Charlie Brown Christmas.  Thanks so much, Nurse Kari!

Museum of Science and Industry

On Wednesday, we took our field trip to the Museum of Science and Industry.  Students were able to find their countries' trees and learn some new facts for their projects.  We also had time to explore the museum and see an Omnimax movie on ocean reefs.  The kids had a blast!
