There will be no Scholastic Book Orders during December, as we are sponsoring 
a Book Fair through our local Barnes & Noble in Long Beach - in the 
Marketplace at PCH and 2nd Street.  Please come out and participate!  It 
begins the 3rd and runs through the 13th of December!

Wednesday - December 16th - we will have a rehersal for our Thursday Program, 
so please send your child in their Regular School Uniform - not P.E.

During this Season - we will have several "outreach" opportunities:
First - Maya Patel and her family will be visiting the Orphanage in India 
where Mira was adopted.  They will be taking "new" baby blankets with them.  
We will begin collecting "new" baby blankets beginning on Monday, November 
30th!

Second - The Church sponsors a Christmas Dinner - we have been asked to 
donate Mr. & Mrs. Claus Gifts.  After the dinner, everyone who attends is 
given a Special Gift.  If they are a man, they receive a Mr. Claus gift, if 
they are a woman, they receive a Mrs. Claus gift.  No need to put who it is 
to on the gift tag.  Items that are useful, Cards, Books, Music CDs, Mugs, 
Scarf/Glove Sets, Throw Blankets (Please refrain from food, or perfumed items 
since many are sensitive to these items.) Rooms 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 & 8 are 
all collecting Mr. Claus gifts only, and Rooms 1a, 2a, 3a, 4a, 5a, 6a, 7a & 
8a are collecting Mrs. Claus gifts only!

Special Note about your child's reading!  Please refer to the "Importance of 
Summer Reading" tab on our webpage.  Many of our students are needing parent 
support with their reading practice at home - they should be reading out loud 
to you for a minimum of 15 minutes each day!  Please see the importance of 
helping your child to choose appropriate books for their comfort level and 
reading practice.  The Star Report that you received earlier this month 
indicated your child's estimated comprehension/comfort level for reading 
success.

AR Book Goal for the 2nd Quarter:
Each child will be responsible for reading 12 AR books for this quarter.  
Only 6 of these books can be completed at home through Book Adventure.  The 
other 6 must be completed in class at school!  75% of the students in Room 2 
not only achieved last quarters goal of 8 ARs, they exceeded it!  One student 
read 18 books, all in class!  So get started this weekend, and be ready to 
reach that goal!  It's easy to attain if you read a minimum of 2 books per 
week.

If you are interested in volunteering in Room 2 or 2A, you are welcome any 
Monday-Thursday from 8:30-10:00am.  Feel free to come in, be sure to sign in 
at the office before joining us.  We love to have the children read aloud to 
a parent, so if you are available, please stop by.  Please note: If you drop 
in at another time of the day, we may ask you to help us with other tasks 
that may not involve working directly with the children.  If that's okay with 
you, then we'd be more than happy to have your help!

We'd like to say special "thanks" to Mrs. Tuttle, Mrs. Smith, Mrs. Karich, Mr.
and Mrs. Bareford who have all been able to work us into their busy schedules 
and have been able to stop in on a regular basis to help out in Room 2!  
Right now we have at least 2-3 parents able to stop in on Tuesday and 
Thursday.  Monday's and Wednesday's are still open!

Room 2 has a wonderful volunteer - every Tuesday morning - Marianna Simeone. 
She is a parishioner here at St. Hedwig, and comes to listen to the children 
read after she attends mass.  She is a qualified Music Instructor.  She's a 
memeber of the MTAC and NGPT.  She teaches piano for reasonable fees.  If you 
are interested, please contact her at 562/430-4680.  She has worked with many 
families here at St. Hedwig.  Mrs. Bancroft's children have gone to her for 
some time now, she would be a good reference for you.  Her children are Sarah 
and Caroline.
