UWA's Christmas Tree Lighting

The past few years instead of doing 2 separate programs for Thanksgiving and then Christmas, our students have participated in the tree lighting ceremony at the Student Union Building. Last night the community gathered for this special event. Our class sang Jingle Bells (and jingled bells), other classes sang Rudolph and did the Reindeer Pokey. We sang We Wish You a Merry Christmas as a group. Miss UWA and UWA's Choir also sang a few songs. Even though it was 80 degrees yesterday, we still had a merry little time!

Family Turkey Project

Families were to Help their turkey make it safely past Thanksgiving this year by disguising him as part of Their family. They were to Think of something that is unique to their family (hobbies, jobs, sports, etc…) and dress their turkey. They could use any medium to decorate their turkey.

Here are some pictures of our class' turkeys and some from the other classes, as well. This is a favorite project of mine!
