Merry Un-Christmas

- Date: 12.14.09

Christmas is fast approaching, so 1st grade students got to hear the silly holiday story Merry Un-Christmas by Mike Reiss.

One reason Christmas feels special is because it’s only once a year.  So imagine living in a town where Christmas is 364 days a year!  What would you do to celebrate the one day of Un-Christmas?

And as a special treat, First Grade students also got to take a look at a touching holiday film:

The Snowman by Raymond Briggs.

This animated short was nominated for an Academy Award in 1982.  The calm pace, colorful animations, and soothing soundtrack make this wordless story a heart-warming classic for the winter season.
