Mrs. Brock’s News

We will be reading Thanksgiving stories and doing activities with these for next week, November 23rd-24th. We will not be doing our regular reading or spelling test. We will be reviewing verbs, money, subtraction, and 0-7’s multiplication facts.

Our Christmas party will be on December 17^th at 8:15 A.M. in our classroom. Each student should bring $3.00 to cover the cost of his or her food, a drink at the party, and to buy the materials that are needed to do Christmas ornaments. This money should be sent to school by December 6^th.

I need you to buy a Christmas present for your child (around $8.00), wrap it and then send it to school for the Christmas party. If there is a problem with purchasing a Christmas gift, please let me know as soon as possible. I would not want your child be the only one who does not have something to open at the party. After the party, the children will be allowed to check out with their parents.

Our class will be collecting money towards helping with a Christmas Love project. If they usually get a dollar for break they might want to give $.50. This teaches them the lesson “that it is more blessed to give than receive”. Any money donations are greatly appreciated.
