Holiday Party!

It’s almost time for our Holiday Party!  It is going to be a fun event. We will be having our party on December 21 from 8:30-10 am in the cafeteria. We will have 6 stations that the classes will rotate through, which will include a snack, two crafts and 3 games. We would love to have you there to enjoy the fun and to help your students do their activities at each station!

What's Happening 12/5-12/9

Happy Friday!

There are a lot of important dates coming up. Next week the Peppermint Shop will be open for students to purchase gifts for their families. Please see the flyer that was sent home today to see when your child is allowed to shop.

Here is what we are learning next week:

Reading/Language Arts/ Writing

We have learned the structure of poetry and how to classify poems. Next week, we will be analyzing poetry. We will be looking at poetry in multiple choice formats. This can get a little boring, so I will simulate a game show with the kids next week to pump them up! I hope they will enjoy this lesson! :)
