We were ready for some hard work and play at our centers. We had our horses and our Nativity at our rug center again today--and our horses again spent some time visiting the stable. We did some messy shaving cream and glitter at Mrs. Hennessy's center. Some of us were a little hesitant about mixing these two things together, while others jumped right in! At Miss Kathleen's center we made sticker pictures of the Nativity--and sang our "Knock, Knock, Knock Went Joseph" song while we worked. (You can hear a very short clip of this below!)
Here are the other songs we'll be singing with the rest of the school. The youtube links will help give you an idea of the tune!
