Dear families,
December 4, 2015
Happy December! I hope you all had a nice Thanksgiving with your family and friends. The students were very excited to bring home their Native American projects. I hope you enjoyed them and hopefully they were able to tell you about them and how we made everything!
We are moving swiftly into Holidays Around the World studies. The students will learn about Hanukkah, St. Lucia Day, La Posadas, Kwanzaa and Christmas.
IMPORTANT EVENTS
On Monday December 14th the students can wear the PAJAMAS to school to celebrate the Polar Express book!
Thursday December 17th I will bring the class up to Young Shopper’s Club. This event is sponsored by the PTO. Students can buy gifts for their families (including pets). Gifts range in price from 50 cents to $3.00. I would recommend no more than $10.00 for your child to use. It is a lot of fun and the children love this!!
Our Holiday Concert will be December 23rd at 9:15 in the multi-purpose room. Students should wear their best Holiday Red for the show.
Please let me know if your child will not be here for the show so that we can plan accordingly.
It will be a wonderful show and the students are looking forward to singing to you!!
Our letter of the week was “Uu”. Our tongue twister was, “Ursula’s uncle stands under an umbrella.” We continue in math to sort solid and flat shapes and name them. We are also practicing writing our numbers 0-20 in the correct direction and adding within 5.
In Writer’s Workshop, we are working on incorporating spaces into our writing and adding ending punctuation.
The homework books seem to be going well. The students seem to be enjoying them and are very proud! Thanks for your cooperation on this.
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. Hopefully you will be able to attend the Jamestown Tree Lighting on Saturday, December 5th at 5:30 downtown. It is a lot of fun and the Lawn Avenue band will be there playing Christmas songs as well.
Enjoy!
Mrs. MacIntyre
