It’s a month of Holidays around the world! We’ve celebrated St. Nicholas day (German) on Thursday and Hanukkah today. We will continue the celebrations with St. Lucia Day (Sweden) this week and Los Posados and Christmas next week. Speaking of Christmas; in lieu of getting a gift for each other or for the teachers we ask that you “gift the classroom”. The children have made a list of things they would like to have in the room.

colored pencils
research (reference) books
constructions paper
dry erase markers (black)
liquid food coloring

Bring your sleds, snow gear and family!

***Compass news- when you receive an email and it says you have an Activity Report or Activity it means there is news about the classroom or about your child. This is the main way we are communicating, let me know if you are having any difficulty getting to this or have any questions.
One last final note is to mark your calendars! Indiana Montessori Community School will be hosting an open house for the Adolescent Program on January 18th from 2-4pm. If you are interested in viewing the new school and/or asking some questions/meeting Ms. Jennifer this is your chance!
