Happy Holidays!

                              

Haigh family,

I wish all of you happy, safe, and healthy holidays and time spent with your loved ones over these next couple weeks.  We had a wonderful day today, spent eating a delicious pancake breakfast (Thanks Mrs. Mashhour), and other toppings and sweet treats sent in by other parents for our class to enjoy.

I’m sending a sincere and heartfelt THANK YOU to all of you for helping run reindeer games, sending in treats, and spoiling me with the most amazing gifts. I’m truly blessed to teach here at Haigh and feel so grateful to have your student in my class.

Enjoy some pictures from today 🙂

Music Concert Tonight!!

Parents-

Please make sure your child is in the band room at Bryant Middle School  by 6:40 pm, so they can take the stage at 7pm.  They’ve done a great job performing for the school and practicing at Bryant today!

I may not be there tonight, as the 24 hour flu/stomach bug has hit my house.  All 3 of my little boys are sick with it.  If I don’t see you tonight, I hope to see you on Friday for our Holiday party!

 

Thanks,

Mrs. Izbicki

Grinch Day Fun

Thank you to all those who sent in sweet treats for the kids to enjoy while we watched the original movie “How the Grinch Stole Christmas”.  The kids got to play pin the heart on the Grinch, make a Grinch craft from multiplication, play Grinch jeopardy, and enjoy Grinch snacks.  We had some really cute hair-dos, outfits, and even faces that were painted like Mr. Grinch!
