THE LAST WEEK BEFORE CHRISTMAS

So we are officially ON HOLIDAYS!!!! and i am back at home with the family as happy as can be :).

this last week was lots of fun at school. We did two math centers related to the gingerbread man and we finished the project with a gingerbread men cookies hunt. Yesterday the three wise men, santa claus and olentzero came to school so we were more than thrilled to see them: take a look at our week:

THE GINGERBREAD MAN HUNT:
I made cookies for my students and when we came back from recess the jar was open and they were gone!




There was a note in the jar with a clue to find them. They were in a place with balls, so we went to the gym:
Sara saw the cookies running and they left a note for us saying that they were somewhere with books:

                                
 we went to the LIBRARY and there aintzane and her students first and then maria jesus saw the cookies running and they left us a note saying they were somewhere full of teachers:
 we went to the teachers room and cristina told us that the cookies came in with a note for us saying they were somewhere full of food:

 we went to the canteen and there Blanqui told us she saw the cookies but they didn't leave any notes.
 We were soo sad we had to go back to class.AND THERE THEY WERE!!! THEY HAD TRICKED US.

 We decorated them and they were soooo yummy!!!

FRIDAY WITH OLENTZERO, SANTA CLAUS AND THE THREE WISE MEN:

We ate special christmas snacks and played with the brand new toys the christmas characters gave us .

This week we made decorations for our gingerbread houses:



WHAT DO YOU THINK?

We also colored the characters in the story and placed them between both houses:









The day of the gingerbread man play came. I am more than proud of these 4 year olds and their english and i thank my mom for the headbands and my co-tutor for the gingerbread man costumes. They looked fantastic.

CATCH ME CATCH ME IF YOU CAN.




WE ARE LOOOVING OUR GINGERBREAD MAN PROJECT:



  

To introduce the topic I started drawing a gingerbread man as they were giving ideas of what i was drawing:



we read the story millions of times and then using story cards we use our english to talk about what happened to the gingerbread man and sequence the story:



We decorated our doors like a gingerbread house in the following weeks we will decorate our house with christmas ornaments. Can't wait:



we sequence the story though these two activities:

sequencing 6 cards was a bit difficult but we did a great job.

we did a great syllable counting activity from Deanna Jump.





we love dramatizing the story and it is going to be part of our christmas festival this year.
My mom helped me make this adorable headbands four our play and the kiddos looove playing with them.
