Polar Express Day!

Our kindergarten students had a wonderful learning experience that was inspired by the Caldecott award winning book, The Polar Express (pictured above), written by Chris Van Allsburg. Students became the "Polar Express" and "choo chooed" to other classrooms to pick up other kindergarten friends. Mrs. Moody (an elf for the day!) read the story to the children who were all gathered together. Back in their own classrooms, students enjoyed hot cocoa and treats, just like the children did on the Polar Express!
