Tomorrow is our Annual Holiday Lunch!
Parents and families are all invited to join us tomorrow for our annual Holiday Lunch. Our lunchtime is from 11:10 - 11:35. Visitors can purchase lunch in the lunchroom, or can bring their own. The book fair will also be open tomorrow if you wish to take your child after lunch. I hope to see everyone tomorrow!
Map Math Test Tomorrow!
My ELA and Math students will take their Winter Math MAP test tomorrow at 9:00 a.m. I gave them the night off of homework, except for reading for 20 minutes. We will resume spelling next week.
Classroom Winter Celebrations
We will have our annual classroom Winter Celebration next Wednesday, December 19th from 1:00 - 2:20. I think this year I will have 4 or 5 stations for students to participate in different Winter Holiday activities. I will send a Sign-Up-Genius tomorrow for parents to sign up to bring a snack or craft supply. I have a wonderful room mom who is going to help out, but I would love one or two more parents who can possibly help with stations during our celebration. Please let me know if you would like to join us:)
