NO CENTERS THIS WEEK BECAUSE OF THE THANKSGIVING HOLIDAY! HAVE A WONDERFUL VACATION!

November

This is a short week because of the Thanksgiving holiday. We will have our Thanksgiving party on Tuesday. Thanks again for those who volunteered to bring items. We have had fun learning about Native Americans and pilgrims and what life was like in early America. This week we will continue to discuss the many blessings we have to be thankful for. We will also learn the sight word it and practice recognizing and writing numbers 11-20.

The Box Tops contest will end on Tuesday, Nov. 24. Thank you to those who have sent box tops to help earn money for our school! The goal is 800 per class—we have a ways to go to reach that, but every bit helps so please continue to send them with your child even after the contest is over. Another prize is coming in March. Also, as you do your holiday shopping online, you can earn money for the school. There is a “box tops marketplace” website. Please check it out—we can earn up to 15%!

THANKS to those who have already sent items for the hygiene packets to send to the hurricane victims in Mexico. The final collecting day will be December 4th. You can send the items (soap bars, toothpaste, toothbrushes, wash clothes, standard combs, Ziploc gallon bags) any time with your child before that date. I will be collecting them in our room and take them to the office all together.

THANKS FOR EVERYTHING! I ENJOY TEACHING YOUR CHILDREN!
