Hi Everyone!  Wow! Can you believe that it is December already? It is a busy month, so please check the calendar for upcoming events.      Just a reminder that class pictures are available for $4.00.            International Project  There was lots of excitement in our room on Friday, as our letters from pen pals arrived from Texas. The students were excited to read all about their buddies. We are busy writing letters and making Christmas cards to send out on Thursday. Our weekly report went well yesterday and Lexa and Tanner did a super job as the reporters and Jenna did a nice poetry reading. There is no snow in Texas yet!    Skating  Our next skating day is on Thursday December 9th. Ice time is from 9:00-9:40am. Students need skates and helmets. Parents please join us if you are able.        Food Bank  A reminder that the Student Council is doing a food drive for the Food Bank.        Borrow-A-Book  Remember to read each night and fill out your reading log.    Enjoy the rest of the week! There are only 24 more days until Christmas!
