I just wanted to remind
everyone that tomorrow is our last day before Christmas Break and our class
party. If you haven't already sent a book for the book exchange please send
that first thing in the morning, also $2 to help cover the cost of the pizza.
School will let out at 11:45 however for those students who normally stay
extended care will be available until 6:00.
I want to take this
time to thank all the parents for all you do to encourage your children. We
have had a great year so for and I can not believe that we are half way
through. I am looking forward to the second semester. We have a lot of things
planned and I know that everyone will have a great time. Have a safe holiday and we will see you all next year (2013).
The students had a great time on Friday as they participated in Santa's Workshop. They made several different crafts and drank hot chocolate with their cookies at snack time.
This week we will be focusing on the real reason that we celebrate Christmas and that is the birth of Jesus. On Wednesday we will have a birthday party for Jesus and sing Happy Birthday to him. They children will enjoy a piece of cake and juice after our weekly chapel.
Each class will also have a Christmas Party on Friday at 11:00. Our class will exchange books before they eat pizza and decorate cookies. Please sign up to bring some of the supplies needed. We are also asking that you donate $2 to help cover the cost of the pizza.
Run, run as fast as you can, you can't catch me I'm the Gingerbread Man!
We had a surprise visit from the Gingerbread Man himself today. He dropped a few clues for us to follow and we searched for him all over the school. Mrs. Langford's class came along to help us look for him and when we finally did (back in our classroom) he invited us to sit down for a little taste. The students really enjoyed their gingerbread treat.
Don't forget that the Christmas Programs are Tuesday night at 5:30. Students need to meet in the Choir room at 5:15 in full costume.
We will also have our bi-monthly safety class on Wednesday as Ms. Kitty Jones comes to our class to present a new lesson. We always look forward to her visits.
Friday CCS will be hosting Santa's Workshop. Each class will be guided from one room to another by some wonderful volunteer parents. The teachers will remain in their own rooms and supervise the activities while the students create several projects.
Only two weeks until Christmas Break!!!!! Ugh!!!!!

Hello to All,
I can't believe that it is December already! We will finish reading a variety of Gingerbread books this week as well as discuss differences and similarities about them.
Sight words for this week are with and my. Please keep reviewing all of the previous sight words. I will work on getting the rest sight words put together and send them home after the new year.
The students are learning new words all the time and are beginning to sound out words so encourage them to read and also read to them.
More later.
Mrs. Keever
