Activities

Thank you again for coming to Honor Roll and for supporting our class. :) Our December activities (NEXT Wednesday and Thursday) include :
  • Watching Polar Express in PJs while sipping hot chocolate and eating cookies (Any cookie or coffee maker contributions will be appreciated greatly.)
  • Oreo Pie activity-contributions toward this activity were sent with your child. Each student is responsible for one ingredient-just like the book, Stone Soup. If you are also able to send a large PLASTIC mixing bowl, large mixing spoon, or measuring cup, it will surely make the event successful.
  • Remember to turn in your info to our terrific room mom! Feel free to contact her-she's great!
  • Christmas Party! We'll also continue our Hanukkah celebration. :) Kwanzaa will continue to be practiced for student celebration during the school break.
  • Remind students to leave Santa simple and satiating snacks. :)
  • Scholastic Story Works AND Super Science subsriptions are ONLY $7 for both! That's 50% off from Open House! Class-wide participation would be fantastic for both class and home reading! They are well worth it.

Thanks again to the families who've contributed goodies, goodie-bags, and delicious treats from your culture. We all enjoy sharing the experiences. Thanks again. :)
