Mrs. Hickson's Class

Our year is moving ahead so quickly!  The Christmas holidays are almost upon us.  We will be celebrating on Thursday afternoon December 20^th with a classroom party.  There will be a Sign Up Genius on my blog if you wish to contribute to the party.

We are also having a gift exchange.  Each child bringing a gift will receive a gift during the gift exchange.  If your child would like to participate, please follow these directions:

1.  The cost of the gift should be about $5.00.
2. Please send the gift to school on December 18,19, or 20^th.
3. Do not put who the gift is from only who the gift is for.

We are looking forward to a fun holiday party!!

Don’t forget the Secret Santa info. sheets are due tomorrow.

Students have a Secret Santa info sheet to fill out.  These need to come back to school on Monday 12/10.

The November reward is playing games with friends.  Students in grades K-2 may bring in board games from home, but please NO ELECTRONIC GAMES!   Make sure to label the games with your child’s name. Also, only send in games that your child already knows how to play (suggestions include: checkers, chess, Memory, Connect 4, Sorry, Candyland, Uno, Jenga).

Students in grades 3-5 have received permission to bring in their “electronics” as their game choice. The older students are very excited about this privilege!   Students may bring in DS games, iPods, MP3 players, tablets, etc. at their own risk.  We expect that students will only be playing “school appropriate” games.  No picture taking or accessing social media is allowed.  Students who do not wish to bring in electronics may bring in board games.

Thank you.

Community Service Projects

The students of Lindbergh have decided to do two community service projects.  This helps out the community by us giving to those that are in need. We are sharpening our saw by helping our hearts.  Please consider giving to one of our projects.

1. Dearborn Animal Shelter

The Dearborn Animal Shelter is located on Michigan Ave. behind the Police Station.  They take care of many unwanted pets. Due to the amount of animals they need our help.  The shelter is in need of many new items to help take care of the animals. Here is a list of a few needed items for dogs and cats. Cats need unopened bags or boxes of dry Purina cat food, dishes and cat clay litter- non clumping. Dogs need Nylon 6 ft. leashes and collars, unopened bags of dry Pedigree dog food. Both cats and dogs need new fleece blankets, toys and treats. We are collecting until the end of February. Put the donations in the box by the Auditorium.

2. Ronald McDonald House

The Ronald McDonald House of Ann Arbor provides a “home away from home” for families of children experiencing a serious illness or injury required hospitalization in the Ann Arbor area.

The Ronald McDonald House needs pop tabs to turn in and they can recycle them for money.  Please bring your pop tabs to school and put them in your classroom container. We are collecting until the end of May.
