The Weeks Are Flying By!

Welcome back from the Thanksgiving break.  We have very few days before we are back at home for the holidays.   In the next three weeks we will be covering three literature stories, several grammar concepts, a writing prompt, and two chapters in math.   There is never an idle moment in room 1!

The big news is the second grade play.  The Little Red Hen is next week and the children have worked very hard preparing for the performance.  There are two scheduled performances for the Rio students scheduled on Thursday at 8:15 and again at 9:00.  The parent performance is scheduled for Friday, December 10th at 8:15 a.m.  If you are unable to attend the Friday performance, feel free to come on Thursday.  Cockle-doodle-doo!

Thank you to all of the parent volunteers.  I am having a hard time scheduling all of the gracious volunteers! If I have not found you a spot, hang in there.  I hope to have all parents and grandparents scheduled by break.

Finally, the field trip to the Museum of Natural History is Dec. 16th from 10:45-1:15.  I have 38 spots for children and only 27 children.  If you are interested in taking a field trip off, please notify me asap.  Thank  you for volunteering to drive.
