Wow! We made it to the last week before Christmas break.  Here are few things happening this week.   *  We will continue to work on the letter R r for the rest of this week instead of starting a new letter.  Things have been so busy that we didn't get all the letter R r things completed.  We already had Show and Tell for the letter R so we won't be having Show and Tell this week.       *  The Christmas Shopping party will be held on Tuesday for K-2 and on Thursday for 3-5.  If your child is purchasing gifts, please send in a list of names your child will be buying for.     *  We will be having a Polar Express Party on Wednesday, Dec. 19th where we will be watching the movie 'The Polar Express'.  Children can wear their pajamas on that day and hop aboard the train to watch the movie.  We will also be having hot chocolate and cookies.   *  On Friday, Dec. 21st we will be watching a movie with K-2 students in the gym.  Students can bring a snack for the movie.
