A Jingle Parade In Chilton House
The three-year-olds in C-1 went caroling in the hallways this week. They used jingle bell bracelets they made and strolled through the hallways singing “Jingle Bells” and “Frosty the Snowman.” As they visited all of the CH classrooms, the Kindergarten and the PreKindergarten children often joined them in song. It was truly a joyous way to celebrate their place in the Chilton House community and a charming “holiday greeting” to all of their CH friends.

A Taste of Chanukah for Prekindergarten
A wonderful celebration of Chanukah was enjoyed in Ms.Leff's and Ms. McConville's Prekindergarten class. EMS Music Chair Amelia Gold, mother of Noah, shared her musical talent by playing the violin, demonstrating dances, and sharing stories with the children. Eating the latkes and the sufganiyah jelly doughnuts, was also a highlight!
Prekindergarten: Wrappin' and Churnin'
"We read The Gift of Nothing and the children wrapped empty boxes to put under the Christmas tree in Chilton House. We also made butter in jars and enjoyed it with our pasta during cooking. The children saw a liquid (cream) form into a solid (butter)." ~ Mrs. Aslam

EMS kindergarten students are flying high
Recently, after reading informational books about pilots and airports, our kindergartners built their own airport using hollow blocks. They also created tickets and passports to document their travels, and folded paper airplanes that filled the sky of their busy airport.
