We read The Wish Tree by Kyo Maclear about a little boy and his sled looking for a wish tree and all the animals they befriend as on their journey to find the tree. The class continued to discuss ways to be kind to each other and also started to learned a bit about Martin Luther King Jr.
The children enjoyed working on their order, coordination, concentration, and independence with the lessons in the practical life area. They were excited to work with the new winter themed materials in the spooning, transfer, tonging, and sorting lessons.
