Week of 12/13

Dear Parents,

I hope you enjoyed the Christmas Concert last week! I was sent videos and the kids looked and sounded wonderful. We hope it put you in the Christmas spirit! We have a busy full week so please read all the reminders! Here they are:

- We will start a new story this week and the long vowel e.

- We will have math test on Wednesday on place value. A review will be sent home for homework.

- Report cards will be sent home tomorrow. Please remember that these grades are a reflection of your child's work in school along with their test scores. You may keep the actual report card at home. Please just sign and return the envelope. If you have any questions please let me know!

- On Wednesday  morning we will go to Santa's Secret Shop! Please mark the envelope with who your child is shopping for and how much to spend on each person. It is really helpful to me and the volunteers! You can send your envelope in anytime before Wednesday! Thanks!

- Friday will be a Dress Down Day. Please send in $1.00 to dress down. Thank you!

- We are still collecting socks for the homeless if you would like to donate some this week!

Have a great week!
Mrs. Hallinan
