Merry Christmas to all and see you next year!!

Here we are! On to the holidays and a well-deserved break. I wish you all the best the season can possibly bring. It has been the greatest gift to spend the last few months with your children. Thank you for trusting me with them. I know how precious they are to you. 
  I'm sending out a homework packet this week. We will be having some fun spelling words we will work on in class. No testing for a grade will take  place, though. 
  Please take note of these dates:

Monday, Dec. 12      Our Community Closet opens to you. Please feel free to come in between 3:30 
                                 and 5:30 every night this week and take what you would like.


Tuesday, Dec 13      Cookies with Santa, Business Expo


Wednesday, Dec 14    10a.m.   2nd grade Honor's Assembly and Holiday performance, 1/2 day

Catch me, Catch me, if you can!!

 This past week was quite fun. We read three Gingerbread man stories that were varied in writing style and outcome. Several did not end well for the Gingerbread Man, unfortunately. However, more fun than that was the alternate endings that some of the kids wrote. They are hilarious and I hope to have them edited and up in the hallway for you to read this week. Friday, I was able to bring in some gingerbread man cookies and they were a hit!
  This week we will be finishing up all of our quarter work before I need to do our report cards.  We will also be working on our Holidays around the World book.
  Please remember that your child's Holiday Project is due on the 12th. We will be presenting them to each other that week. Also, if your child will be receiving an award at the Honor's Assembly next week, I will be sending a note home with your child. I wouldn't want you to miss it.
   Be looking for more information on the Honor's Assembly and Holiday program next week. We are having a lot of fun rehearsing our song!
    Have a great week!
