Week of December 17, 2018

Dear Families,

Thank you for taking time out of your schedules and coming to our First Grade Winter Sing!  The students did an excellent job singing and reciting their lines! Can you tell that they love Rudolph (with the “surprises”)?  
Thursday is our class Holiday Party!  The party will run from 9:00-10:30.
On Thursday Students can wear their pajamas to school, but please make sure they are wearing regular shoes for recess and PE.  They can also bring one small stuffed animal.
We will have a sub, Mrs. Threet Thursday afternoon, so I can watch my daughter’s kindergarten Nutcracker performance.
There is no homework or Spelling for next week and over the Winter Break.   I will send home the next homework packet in January 2019!
I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
