Monday Notes

With this being the final week before the Winter Recess, I'd like to wish everyone a lovely holiday season with the best hopes for a spectacular 2011!

Just some reminders for this week:
We will have a visit to the Armory tomorrow. Please make sure your child is in secure foot gear such as sneakers. 
Whoops! Due to the switches in the Armory schedule, We will have our next Armory visit on January 18th. Sorry for the misunderstanding.

*Our Holiday celebration will be on Thursday. Your child should bring a drink for his/ herself. If you would like to send in an additional treat, it would be fine but please keep in mind that we will have pizza that afternoon.

* An short optional Homework packet will go home tomorrow. It is intended to help your child retain  current learning through the break and onto the next year. It is understood that different families have different engagements during the holidays and not everyone can get to do homework. Whatever can be done would be fine and there are many opportunities during seasonal activities to incorporate fantasy, reading, writing, metric measurements, etc. into the day, so please don't worry if your child doesn't get to it.

* In preparation for an upcoming butter churning activity in January, please keep a lidded 8-14 0z. glass jar handy.  I will let you know when we will need it in class.

Thanks again and have a festive week!
