Remarkable Reindeer!

The First Graders learned lots about the remarkable reindeer as they learned and sang reindeer songs.  The boys and girls created unique reindeer using construction paper, markers, and crayons. They also placed their chef hats and aprons on as they served up healthy and delicious reindeer snacks made from wheat bread, large pretzels, and small candies.  Sandwich filling choices included ham, cheese, peanut butter/jelly.   Here are some of their reindeer along with each student's remarkable reindeer fact.
