Speaking of December, it is a short one and it is jammed packed with lots of things to do!
First thing to take care of is to get your child’s permission slip in when we come back from Thanksgiving Break. Thank you for those who got there’s signed and back to me the Friday we got out on break, that was most helpful! Remember, permission slips must be in 24 hours before we go to The Nutcracker Ballet in Ogden. This field trip will NOT require any parent chaperones. Please also to make sure to get your child’s $2.00 fee in to the office either through the link to the right of our blog or in person.
December’s project is a book report! Projects are due the week of December 16th. Students are to read a book for their reading level. If your child is seeing Ms. Kathy for reading, she will be doing mid year reading testing the first week of December. You can email me if you would like those results. This month’s book report project is called Cereal Box! Please visit the Home Project tab for more information!
In December we do a Holiday Feast. December 19th is the date, that is a Thursday. It will take place at lunch time (12:00pm). We will need helpers with food/drinks, tableware, etc. I will send out a we join link for those who want to help. This is our big get together of year and you’ll DEFINITELY will not want to miss out!
