Holiday Fun

December is filled with learning opportunities to explore cultural celebrations and build friendships. We took advantage of this special time of the year and enjoyed a Hanukkah celebration followed by the Big Red Fellow and a Christmas party. Enjoy the look of delight in the faces of our students as you view the photo shows. Hanukkah Fun on PhotoPeach Christmas Fun on PhotoPeach

Our Second Grade Holiday Play

Putting on a holiday play is a second grade tradition at Chets Creek.  The boys and girls begin learning the words to the songs in the early fall.  Then they add dance moves. We read the script and divide up the lines.  By the time we add props and costumes December is upon us.  Here is a peek at this year's production of Once On A Housetop.

After the play, we had the children reflect on their experience.  Here are some of their thoughts.
