Newsletter for December 6th. 

I wanted to post this newsletter before Thursday to give you time to plan for next week.  On Wednesday, December 14, we will have a Holiday Program in our classroom.  We will sing songs and recite poems that we have been working on in the classroom and in music.   Everyone is invited to attend. 

I am assessing this week and next week during reading groups so reading groups will not look like they usually do.  I will have a substitute tomorrow so I can assess all morning. The progress I am seeing in your child is very encouraging.   Keep up the reading at home......it shows.   

I want to thank Mrs. Stark for all of her help with organizing fun food for the classroom!  We have had popcorn to share with our reading buddies, and most recently, gingerbread men for each child to eat, and write about, and one enormous gingerbread man for our classroom.  He did run away from us today, while we were in music, and we are going to look for him tomorrow. :(  Thank you Mrs. Stark!  You are the best!!
