Kindergarten Holiday Sing Along

The kindergartners celebrated the holidays with songs and good company.  The children invited the parents to a special holiday sing along.  They all got to wear their holiday pajamas and afterwards enjoyed bagels and hot chocolate with their friends and family.

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
