Please remember that we will be having our final practice for the Christmas program this Saturday morning at 9 a.m. It is important for as many students to be there as possible as this is where we put together our final seating chart and practice walking in and out.
On Sunday evening, please have your child in theclassroom by 3:45. It would also be helpful to have them go to the bathroom right before they come to the room. With our limited number of bathrooms, it is hard to take all of the students at the last minute as others from the congregation are also using the restroom. At the end of the service, please pick your child up in the classroom.
Next week will also be presenting our service at the Lutheran Home and Kingsway. We will be walking over to both of these facilities and will return for lunch.
This next week is the students’ last chance to take AR tests for the month of December. At this point 3 have met their goal already. Please keep encouraging your child to be reading at home. It would also be very helpful for them to bring their library books to school as well. There have been several days this month when I gave the students time to read at school and several of the students did not have their library books along to work on their AR points.
This next week the students will have a few tests as we prepare for Christmas break. The fourth-graders will have a math test on Monday. All students will have an English test on Tuesday, a science test on Thursday, and the usual spelling test on Friday.
I am still looking for some suggestions for a movie to show at our classroom Christmas party. I do have Netflix so if you have some suggestion of movies you can use either lend to us for the day or a title from Netflix that would be great!
