Monday, December 13th

There is no spelling this week! We will be completing some wonderful holiday activities that go along with some of my favorite books. Ask your child each day about the special book we read and project that went along with the book.

Today, Monday, we read The Mitten by Jan Brett. Your child is coming home with their very own mitten filled with the animals from the story. Have your child retell the story and put all their animals into the mitten in the correct order. We really enjoyed this wonderful winter story!

Friday: We will be watching The Polar Express in our jammies. Kids are welcome to wear their pajamas to school on Friday. Pajamas must be school and winter weather appropriate. We will also be sledding today. I welcome students to bring their own sleds to school, due to limited number currently. Please label your child's sled with his/her name.

Reminder: Send buckets for Gingerbread Houses by Friday! Also, our ornament exchange is on Friday. Have ornaments here and wrapped by Thursday! Thanks!

Book Orders are scheduled to arrive on Thursday. I am still hoping that they will be here earlier. It has happened before:) I will contact parents when they are available for pick-up.

NO School from December 20 - January 2. We return to school on Monday, January 3rd. Happy Holidays!
