Christmas is coming soon!

Our first week of the Christmas theme is complete. We have made a few more Christmas presents for friends and family and we learned about the letter Ii. We have also been working hard at zipping our coats independently. Please encourage your student to get dressed completely on their own at home especially for snow pants, boots, jacket, hat, and mittens/gloves. Today we had a Families Being Involved event! The cookies turned out great, thank you all for coming. :-) 

Reminders:

Our program will be Monday the 22nd and Tuesday the 23rd at 9:30. We will have drinks and refreshments after and be sure to stop by the classroom to pick up the gifts we have been making for you! You may park in the front of the school, busing area, by the high school, or by the Simek center if needed. Just remember all vehicles need to be moved by 3:00 if they are parked on the east side (busing area). 

Bedding will be sent home for the holiday break and the spare set of clothing will be sent home to be sure that they still fit and are for warmer weather. Please be sure to send these back after the holiday (labeled too please!). 

More students have been bringing in gifts for our gift exchange. A gift must be brought to receive one. Remember it is a $5 limit. Boys buy for boys and girls buy for girls. Please address them as: To a boy (or girl) from (your student's name). If this will be a hardship for your family this year please let me know so we can be sure that your child may still participate. 

We will be sending home the next family project this week to be completed over the holiday break as well as a workbook that your student can work on during the break as well. 

There will be no school Wed. December 24th through Friday, January 2nd. Classes will resume Monday, January 5th.
