Holiday Customs and Traditions

During the month of December, we have been focusing on different Holiday Celebrations.  Students decorated a paper shoe to put out for St. Nick and made hats for St. Lucia. Mrs. Thao came and shared pictures about Hmong New Year and the traditional clothing she wears for that.  After learning about a Holiday Celebration, students completed a page in their Holiday Customs booklet.  Please take time to have your child share and tell you about the various celebrations.

Thank you for helping your child complete his/her Holiday Traditions booklet! Students enjoyed sharing them with the class.  As students have shared their Holiday Traditions booklets over the years, I too have learned about other traditions from this Holiday Season.

Please enjoy the Winter Break with your family!  As you go about your various traditions, talk to your child about your traditions.

Superkids Fun!




Thanks to Mrs. Nygaard’s daughter, we were able to bring one of our Superkids, Tac, and Super Smart Book, “Join the Band” to life through the tuba. In this book, we learned about a marching band and some of the instruments in it.  We also saw and heard the instruments Mrs. Nygaard brought, the tuba, flute, clarinet and bassoon.  We had instrument demonstrations by: Mrs. Nygaard on the flute, Mrs. Steckbauer on the clarinet, and Mrs. Rossetti tried to play the tuba (she played the baritone when she was in school). We enjoyed having the real instruments to see and hear!
