Butterfly School News for DECEMBER 2018!!
CHRISTMAS! What a glorious time of year! Long, long ago, a very special child was born who was like no other! Oh what a special night! He spent his first hours in a simple manger surrounded by a loving mother, father and animals, lots of animals! Lying in this manger of wood and straw was the promised Messiah, the hope of the world! Here our Messiah stepped from heaven to live a sinless life, then willingly and selflessly gave his life to pay a debt he did not owe. This selfless act was done as a gift for you and me, and all others willing to claim his name. We believe this is what Christmas is all about!
Our annual Butterfly School Program, Oh What A Special Night, will be held Thursday, December 20th at 12:00 noon. The performance will be in the main sanctuary area of our church. We will be professionally recording the program so everyone can enjoy the program from their seats. Be sure to pre-order your DVD of the performance. Be on the look out for the order form coming home in your child's folder. I have extra copies in the office if needed.

Super Sign Language -Ms. Alison
Last month we learned about transportation signs and started a mini project about planning a trip. During the month of December, the kids will get to share with the class about the trip that they planned and learn how to sign about where they are going, who their going with and how they’re getting there. We will also start learning different signs about Christmas and this season.
Sensational Science- Ms. Tracy
Because of the Christmas holiday we will only meet twice for science in December. To help Santa stay dry, the kids will be testing different materials to find out which ones are most resistant to water, and we’ll be making sparkle snow!
Enjoy your holiday!
Coding Kids- Ms Susan
In the month of December our coding class will continue to build on the skills we have learned such as directions left, right, back, forward. We will also continue working on patterns and sequencing. We are adding the element of cause and effect through programing the Code-a-Pillars predicting and observing how far they will move based on the command given so we can transition to getting them to a specific location.
Our Thanksgiving Feasts were wonderful!
