Lots of things happening before Christmas: practice for the Christmas program, collecting for the Kid-To-Kid drive, making ornaments for the school tree, and lots of whispering about secrets. The second grade and the other half of the first grade got to enjoy the Sabuda pop-up books. I bought a set of his Christmas cards which appear in his book The Christmas Alphabet and sent each class a card. They enjoyed them.
May each of our readers have a Merry Christmas and let us know what you are reading.

Pop-Up Books by Robert Sabuda
I love pop-up books! This week I shared three of my favorites with the kindergarten, and 1/2 of the first grade (the other 1/2 doesn't have class this week because of school improvement). We read Winter in White, Winter's Tale, and The Night Before Christmas. The students were fascinated by the paper engineering and how the objects jumped off the page. They especially thought the ending of A Winter's Tale was spectacular! Thank you, Mr. Sabuda, for your wonderful books.
