Merry Christmas Nelsonites! I hope everyone has had tons of fun over the past week celebrating the holidays & spending time with your friends & families! It’s been a nice and relaxing time during Kennedy’s 3rd Christmas. After a quick trip to the aquarium, we jumped onto a ferry to Vancouver Island to stay with Kennedy’s Grandad and Grandma. She’s having lots of fun exploring local beaches and collecting rocks, shells and beach glass. She’s also reading lots of Christmas books and playing with gifts from Santa. Enjoy your 2nd week of winter holidays everyone and I can’t wait to hear about all your celebrations when we return in 2019!

Jingle’s last week with us had her climbing the walls, hanging from zip lines, playing Battleship and gifting us some candy canes! I sure hope she was proud of our behaviour these past 3 weeks and will give us a thumbs up to Santa!

Jingle continued to visit us this week, with one day off after being handled too much, giving herself a makeover, snoozing in our plant, getting into trouble and continuing to keep her eyes on us from up high in our Rudolph stocking.

Jingle has been busy watching over Division 8’s Grade 3s this past week. Playing in a ball pit, taking a ride on Rudolph, playing with our classroom stuffies, making her mark around the classroom and getting into a stickie situation.

Santa has been sending Jingle, a friendly scout elf from the North Pole, to Room 203 to watch and report on whether Nelson’s Grade 3s are being naughty or nice! She keeps an eye on who is filling their classmates’ buckets during the month of December. Looks like she’s back and having some fun!
I can’t wait to see who’ll be the first to spy the new spot she’ll be watching from each day! I hope her daily report to Santa includes many acts of kindness that she witnesses in our classroom.

Have you seen the large helium balloons in the Santa Claus Day parade? What’s your favourite shape? I remember a very cool looking Rudolph.
