Gingerbread House Day: Next Friday, the 12th,
we are going to be making gingerbread houses!
We will begin at 1:40. See
attached sheet for details and supply needs.
If you would like to help out please let me know! J I
know that the sheet said 1:30, but the children will be at GYM until 1:35. We will not be able to begin until 1:40.
Christmas Party: December 18th we
will have our class Christmas party. The
last few years each child has brought a $3.00-$5.00 gift of their own gender to
exchange at our party. So if you have a
girl they would need to bring a girl gift and boy would need to bring a boy
gift. Please send these at any
time. Our class Christmas tree is up and
able to embrace presents. J
Student of the Week: Our special student this
week is Olivia Bosscher! Olivia would
like to be a veterinarian when she grows up!
She likes cats, mac and cheese, the color pink, and playing outside with
her dog, Dexter. Olivia’s hero is her
cousin, Malorie Bosscher. J
Reading: **see attached paper
Writing: This
week we are thinking about ways that we can help our community. The children are writing a realistic fiction
story with characters, a setting, and a sequence of events. Their story will be based upon helping out in
our community!
Math: We are continuing to measure! We are using non-standard units of
measurement to make and confirm measurement predictions! What fun!
I am trying not to send homework every night, as I understand how
busy life can be. So feel free to take a
couple of days to finish one, but please send them back as your child will
receive a penny for each finished homework.
Also, I am going to begin paying them a penny for each day that they
read at night. This will require an
initial on the calendar so that I can verify they have read.
