December Already?!

Wow!  I can't believe it is already December!  Things have been completely crazy around here with our schedule!  I hope that everyone can make it tonight to the Dance Man!  The kids have been practicing all their new moves.  It should be a very fun and entertaining evening!  Also, I hope that everyone had a chance to visit the Book Fair.  Ms. Head did a fabulous job setting it up - and there were so many books to choose from!  The Book Fair will be open on Monday and Tuesday as well until 3:30.  That will give parents a time to shop before or after conferences! 

Next week don't forget that Monday and Tuesday are short days - students get out of school at 11:25.  If you have not rescheduled your conference yet, please don't forget to do so...check our conference schedule on our blog to see what times are available!

We have the toymaker coming to school on Wednesday the 8th.  He will be our introduction to Solids, Liquids and Gases.  That is always such a fun time for the kids - what a great way to start the day!  He will be here from 8:45 to 10:15 if you are interested in coming to help out! 

The last thing I wanted to mention is that:
Second graders are working on a very special holiday project and we need your help!  We are asking each student to bring in a pair of colorful socks that are about the length of a ruler or just a little bit longer . If you could have your child bring them to school by Thursday, December 9th, that would be appreciated!

I hope that everyone has a wonderful, relaxing weekend - gearing up towards a very busy time of year!
