Weekend Homework

Happy Weekend Parents!

Homework:

Math Lesson 14

Read 30 minutes. Please talk to your child about what they are reading. This helps them understand what they are reading.

We are doing a Secret Santa. Each student picked from a hat and they have to make something for the person they picked. This does not mean buying anything, I made it very clear that they must make something. For example, they could make a nice Christmas card, a bracelet, something out of paper. Let them be creative! It is the season of giving and being kind so we are using this as an opportunity for that.

We will be having our Christmas party on December 21st at 11:30-1:30. I will have more information on that this weekend.

Have a wonderful weekend!
