In Phonics we will not be starting a new letter until after Christmas break. Word List 7 will come home when we return to school in January.

Instead of starting a new story in Reading, we’ll be reading several classic Christmas stories and doing some fun activities!

In Math we’ll review shapes, patterns, and numbers up to 10. We’ll also learn how to “decompose” numbers.

There will be no homework until after Christmas vacation.

Students were treated to an ice cream treat on Wednesday for doing such a great job bringing in donations for the Hurricane Sandy projects!

On December 21st, we will be celebrating the story the “The Polar Express.” Students are invited to dress like the characters of the story by wearing their pajamas to school. We will have hot chocolate, cookies, read the book “The Polar Express” by Chris Van Allsburg and watch the movie.

December 21st is an early dismissal for students (1:00)
