What a busy week before the holiday break! We participated in an exciting E.C.O. lesson, finished our “Flooding the Model” project, practiced addition facts and strategies, and started our non-fiction (information) reading and writing units. We also read about the winter solstice, talked about kindness to others, watched Emmet Otter’s Jugband Christmas with Ms. Arlyn, read a variety of holiday books, and played the dreidel game. I will be posting photos on our classroom blog very soon! Also, I am sending a math game packet home with copies of games that we have been playing in class.
We are wrapping up this exciting week with our K-3 Winter Concert tomorrow, Friday, December 23rd at 1:45 PM in the gym. Our classroom celebration will follow. Families are welcome to join us for this special event. Thank you to everyone who is contributing drinks, healthy snacks, treats, and paper products for our classroom party!
Thank you to Tracy Phillips, Monique Trepanier, and Dave Christy for helping to bake and bag the Chex Mix for our fundraiser last week! The 2nd and 3rd graders did an amazing job creating our Chex Mix, too. We also greatly appreciate all of the wonderful donations to the Chex Mix project, food drive, and Toy Joy!
I wish you all very Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year!
