Holiday Traditions, and Winter Fun
Students are busy learning about a variety of traditions,
holidays, cultures, and customs. For example, we will learn
about the African American celebration Kwanzaa that be-
gins on Dec. 26. We will also play a Dreidle game that is
enjoyed by many during Ha-nukkah celebrations. Finally,
will be celebrating all we’ve learned about different cultures
at the end of the week with a classroom party. Thank you for
all those who agreed to bring supplies for our festivities.
We hope your family has a safe and happy holiday vaca-
