 Hello families, 

Today we read The Polar Express, and then we watched the movie.  We compared the book and movie to see the similarities and differences. We noticed that the movie shows us moving and talking people, they showed us all of the events that happened, they give us better clues to figure out what might happen next, and we got to see the northern lights.  In the book, they use a lot of describing words and it was harder to figure out what would be happening next with only pictures to look at, and we did not see the northern lights. 

We did a movement break today and it was called The Grinch run.  We had to dodge the Grinch, collect snowballs and use the snowballs to knock a wall down. 

I hope everyone has restful holidays and we will see you back on Tuesday January 4.
