Hi Parents,
I hope everyone is having a good week. I feel like I'm always saying this, but we've had another busy week at Tree House. We've been hard at work learning our Christmas songs and practicing the Christmas play every morning. The kids have really enjoyed singing the songs! The play is also coming along nicely. They have all worked hard, and their effort really shows.
On Monday afternoon we started learning the phonic sound E ; we also reviewed reading all the short stories we've read in reading class up to this point. We had an informative day on Tuesday for Career Day. We were lucky enough to have Lauren's mom, Marcus's dad, Rain's dad, Teacher John, and Ethan's father come to Tree House and share their job information with all the kids. In the afternoon we made snowmen for art class while some of the other kids were in Chinese class.
Wednesday morning we practiced the songs and play again, and in the afternoon we started reading a new story about a skunk....Afterwards we worked on more phonics.
On Thursday we continued learning addition. Most of the kids have picked it up pretty quickly, and it's great to see how well they have improved in such a short time. Thursday afternoon we will focus on phonics again, and on Friday we will do Tops and science......

Devon is doing well. He's understanding addition a little more, and he seems to also enjoy the Christmas songs we're learning.

Aston was good this week. He made a really nice snowman in art class. ( He's been talking about snowmen for a month now.)

Albert has been very good this week. He was really happy to get 4 stars yesterday.

Kyle has been feeling a little sick this week. I hope he feels better soon.

Claire has been doing great in math class.

Bonnie has done an excellent job on the play. She should make a wonderful Gingerbread Woman.

Serena made some beautiful snowflakes in art class.

Irene is doing much better in reading class. She's starting to be more confident, and her reading is improving nicely.

Benson is doing well in phonics class.

Eason has done a great job this week. He's been behaving much better!

Phil did very good this week. He's made a nice snowman in art class.
