What's Happening Before Break?

The Third graders have the final on the X6 and X7 Friday, December 17.

The second grade spelling test is Wednesday, December 22.

The field trip is tomorrow.  Thank you to all of the parents who volunteered to drive.

The class Talent Show will now be held before the class party on Wednesday, December 22.  We plan to have the Talent Show around 9:30.  The show will not be a big production.  It will be a low key opportunity for the students to share their many gifts and talents beyond the second and third grade standards.

The class holiday celebration is scheduled for Wednesday, December 22 from 12:15-1:15.  Thank you to Tonya (Tobin's mom) for organizing the party and thank you to all of the parents who volunteered to help.  We have an amazing group of parent helpers this year!

Finally, before we head off to break, I want to take a moment to express how grateful I am for your lovely children.  As I said at Back to School Night, the children  in Room 1 are  kind, respectful, hard workers.  They have matured into responsible, self sufficient young adults and due to their independent work skills and their excellent listening skills, they are learning the material in record speed.  It is hard to keep up with them!    I was petrified to have a combination class and between the students and the supportive parents, I have found the challenges of a combo to be minimal.  It is hard to believe that the year is half over!  I hope that you all have a restful and magical break.  Happy Holidays!
