January Notes...


We have wrapped up study of Russia and their habitats, animals and customs. We are also finishing up reading about facts on Polar Animals...which naturally led us to the study of ice and snow !



Check out these exciting links to an Ice Festival on the border of Russia and China....and a webpage where you can make your own snowflakes!

Harbin Snow and Ice Sculptures: See photos of building sized ice sculptures

Since we are studying snow- please remember to bring crocs, sneakers or similar  to wear when we take off our boots.......otherwise we have to sit on a soggy floor! (We are often on the floor when it is math game time or story time etc.)
