Remember, home projects for the festival are due on Monday, December 15.  They will need to be on a tri-fold board.  The lower el will be presenting on Thursday, December 18, 1:00-2:30 p.m.  Families are encouraged to attend.  This is really one of my favorite events of the year.

We also wanted to invite you to a Holiday mingle and jingle, Friday, December 19, 8:45 to 9:15 a.m., in our classroom.  This is an opportunity to hear some fun songs your children have been working on, enjoy some light snacks, and get to know other families in our classroom (think playdates!).  If you would like to help provide a refreshment for the event, please come with it ready to serve.  I will provide drinks, plates, and napkins.

I want to take the opportunity to thank all of you.  I appreciate the extra care you take in helping your child with their reading and homework, this time is so valuable.  Also, I want to thank those of you who have gone the extra mile by donating your time to our classroom this year. Thank you, I could not do this without all of you.
