Polar Express Day

Polar Express Day was December 17, 2010. What did we do on Polar Express Day? Students wore their pajamas to school and were given a ticket before entering the classroom. As students walked in the door, Ms. Hawas punched their ticket. They were then given hot chocolate and asked to take a seat on our imaginary train. They sure were shocked when they saw their stockings filled from Santa Claus. Students then stretched out on the carpet and watched the movie,
The Polar Express, with their class. After the movie, students had a pizza party. We then went into three different centers. We put together a reindeer out of popsicle sticks, decorated gingerbread cookies, and made a scene using a train cut out. It was such a fun day and it couldn't have happened without the support from all of you.
