Welcome to December!!! Wow, is it cold outside!! We are anxiously awaiting
the coming break and Santa's arrival! I sent home a note about stocking
stuffers in folders today. If you signed up to bring something for our
adopted boy or girl, please try to get that to school this week. Things do
get crazy the last weeks of school and I would like to get this project off
my to do list! Thanks!
I have update the spelling lists, so the correct list should be available if
your child didn't get home with the list. Please try to remind the children
to put their folders in their backpacks. It is really easier to send things
home when there is a folder to put it in. I think those backpacks swollow
things!! :-)
Our party will be on Monday, December 21 at 1:45. I sent home phone numbers
to my room mother volunteers today in folders. They will be contacting you
to help with the party. If you aren't called for this one, you will be for
the Valentine's party. Thanks so much for all you do!
On Tuesday, December 22, we will celebrate our Polar Express rotation. The
students can wear their pajamas and we will be doing fun activities
throughout the day. We will be watching The Polar Express movie in the
afternoon. School starts again on Wednesday, January 6. I am looking
forward to a great break and a wonderful 2010!! See you at our party on the
21st @1:45.
We still have snack each day after specials. They eat at 10:45 (brunch)
so they are hungry by 1:40. Thanks for sending a snack with your child.
Remember that they can bring a water bottle from home to drink during the day.
We have 19 students. Twelve boys and seven girls make up my wonderful
class of first graders!
I am really enjoying your children. Thanks for sharing them with me this
year! Keep reading to your child. See you tomorrow!
