Band Trip to the Forks--The band students will be performing at the Forks on Monday, December 19 at 10:00. We will be leaving the school at 9:15 to arrive and set-up the instruments for the performance. The performance will be over at approximately 10:30. Students will be able to stay at the Forks to skate and have lunch. They will leave the Forks at approximately 12:40 to return to the school for afternoon classes at 12:50. The students will be able to skate from 10:45 until 11:45 and then have lunch at the Forks. Please send money for them to purchase their lunch. If you have ordered lunch from the Lunch Lady program the students will be able to take it home with them. Skates can be rented at the Forks: $2.00 for students, $4.50 for adults. The students will have a short time to shop during their lunch time.
Christmas Gift Exchange--The students have decided to do a gift exchange this year. Each student will bring a gift wrapped present on the theme of books and/or gift cards worth $10-$15. If they bring a gift they will select a number to choose the order in which they will select one of the wrapped gifts. Once a gift has been unwrapped it can be stolen from another student, but only twice. Hopefully this will be a fun experience. Students do not have to participate. If they bring a gift, they get a gift. We will exchange gifts on Dec. 16 as one of our students will be away the following week.
Christmas Hamper Program will be running from Dec 16-20 this year. I will be giving the students information about our classroom hamper on Monday. Our class will be providing a family with a hamper and will be donating all of the non-perishable items as well as gifts for the children. We are definitely looking for families to participate in delivering the hampers for the church as well as someone to deliver our classroom hamper.
ELA--I will be checking reading logs on Monday for 150 min. of reading as well as Agendas for signatures. Students have been working on a Reader's Theatre Unit with Ms. Kuhl. They wrote their own Reader's Theatre based on a story of their choice and performed them in groups. Three Reader Responses for December will be due on Dec. 16.
