We will have our December birthday breakfast next week, Friday December 20th. If you are able to send in a healthy breakfast item to school with your child to share, we would gratefully welcome it. I'll be sending an email out soon for those who signed up to bring something. Also, as always, please join us as your schedule allows even if your child is not having a birthday this month.
Students have been excited to finish up their Where in the World? map projects that were due today, Friday 12/13. Please feel free to send your child in with theirs on Monday if you would like to have a couple of extra days this weekend. We can't wait to see them and learn all about their travel and/or travel wishes!! Thanks for your support in the area of independent projects, we are all enjoying learning so many unique things (including, special interests and talents!) about one another every month!! We are planning to share them over the next week at school.
On Wednesday, December 18th, we will be helping our buddy class out with two assemblies. We will be performing a dance with them at 8:30 and 2:00. Feel free to stop by and watch!
Every year the 5th grade has a craft and bake sale to fundraise for their Spring trip to Boston. The sale is next week on Wednesday December 18th. If you would like your child to visit the sale and make a purchase please send them to school with money in a sealed labeled envelop or plastic baggie. Thank you. A flyer will be coming home soon. A few dollars is MORE than enough!
Thursday, December 19th is the First Grade Book Exchange. Please send your child to school with one (or more if you are interested in donating more) book appropriate for first grade reading to swap. The even will take place at 12:15 p.m. (changed from 9:00) I am looking for parent volunteers to come at 12 p.m. who can help out during the exchange - please e-mail me if you have a couple of hours on Thursday afternoon. We are very excited about this activity!! See the flyer that went home this week for details.

A celebration of the darkest day of the year will take shape as First Grade Day in the Dark next Friday, Dec. 20th. Please look for a note home/blog post about this soon, and how you may be able to help your child prepare. (If you come for birthday breakfast, you may be eating in the dark!)
