Good Evening Families,
I hope everyone had a safe trip home tonight. Winter has started here in Michigan. I did have a couple quick items to share with you.
Now that it has snowed, as long as the temperature is warm enough,we will go outside as much as possible. Children will not be allowed to play in the snow unless they have snowpants; snow boots; hats; and gloves. You can either have your child wear them to school in the morning, or put them in a bag and I will have them put them on before we go to lunch.
We have started a unit about Gingerbread Men. We will be reading different Gingerbread books, comparing which book we like the best, and sequencing the events in the stories. To wrap up the unit, our Holiday party on Friday, Decmeber 22nd, will be a Gingerbread party. During the party students will be able to decorate and eat Gingerbead cookies. We will also need other items for our party. Below is the link for our Sign-up Genius:
www.SignUpGenius.com/go/30E0E4EA4AE2FA7FB6-holiday2. We will need 4 parent volunteers for the party to help set-up as well as clean up afterwards.
Next week is the Holiday shop. Please check your child’s folder for more information.
Next Wednesday, December 20th, will be another District “Late-Start Day”. School will start for students at 9:35 instead of 8:35.
We are still collecting NEW “Hats and Gloves” for our Drive. All donations can be dropped off in our classroom, by Friday, December 15th.
I hope you enjoy the rest of your evening.
Amy Croft
