A few notes:

• Welcome Paige and Ella to our classroom. We are happy to have you and you both fit right in! 

• We are so lucky to have two amazing PE teachers. They have organized a fun Turkey Trot for the kids to be apart of during their scheduled PE time. It is going to be a great time, tennis shoes and/or running clothes are best for school on Monday. I will try and snap some Dojo pictures to share with you! 

• TRADITIONS AROUND THE WORLD studies… We are going to be traveling the globe to find out what various countries participate in during this time of year. The study brings us to 9 countries, as we look at their location, climate, currency, and how they celebrate the holiday season such as decorating with a tree and/or enjoying special recipes. Every year I usually have a snack and craft ready after we have read about our destination, I do not want to let COVID stop that from having some fun… so we will be creative! If you can donate any of the following items from the link below, it would be greatly appreciated! We are looking for craft items and individually wrapped treats. THANK YOU, we would love for our donation list to be complete to take in every bit of this unit.

• Picture day is on December 2nd, we go first thing in the morning so be on time. Picture order packets will be sent home on 11-20

• Our supplies have been well loved, ask your child if they need a new box of crayons, if so, send them in to replenish! The box of 24 is best to offer a variety of color choices when working. Thanks!
