School News: Christmas Tree Wish

Today at school the class finished working on the pine cones that they had painted last week.

Isabel’s pine cone tree.

“A Wish to be a Christmas Tree”  by Colleen Monroe was read. Which is a story about an overgrown tree at a Christmas tree farm that is overlooked year after year and it’s only wish is to be a Christmas tree for someone. With the help of his woodland friends, his wish may come true… Mrs. W, had a cardboard tree, about the size of Isabel, that she used while she read the story. From the excitement Isabel had with telling me about the story, she really liked it.

Nevan was the special helper. For show and tell he brought a truck. The bed of the truck unfolded and then the truck could be driven on it. The truck also made noise but Nevan couldn’t get it to work. For snack, he brought spider-man fruit snacks, crackers, and juice.
