Co-op this week started with a Christmas Party! The birth of Jesus is a great reason to celebrate! We started out by singing Christmas carols, then we played a fun game with candy canes and finally we ate bunches of yummy treats! During class time, the Dialectic kids continued to work on their Oregon Trail simulation. They are close to finishing it, but stay tuned as the final results will come in 2013! The Upper Grammar class made covered wagons, just like the ones the pioneers would have used to cross North America on the Oregon Trail--except ours were made out of popsicle sticks and paper bags! The Lower Grammar class took a pretend journey on the Oregon trail. They boarded their wagons, and formed a wagon train as they traveled throughout the Arizona Community Church campus. They faced hunger, Native Americans and bad weather. They also camped for the night and ate Johnny Cakes. The Five in a Row class read the book, "A Christmas Prayer." They then made adorable manger babies--to remind us that the Son of God came to earth as a baby!
