Dear Families,
We have had another great week with lots of learning and special activities to celebrate the holidays around the world.
The students finished their special holiday presents for their families this week. These presents are wrapped and will come home today, along with many additional things from their cubbies and desks as we are trying to clean up before the end of the year! I will also remind the students to bring home snow-boots and pants today. Hopefully, we will get some snow so we can all enjoy some winter fun over the vacation. Lastly, the students will bring home a Vacation Journal in their Thursday folders today. This journal is for the students to write and draw in to share their holiday experiences with their friends. It is a voluntary project, so please do not feel that your child has to finish this book. Some students might even want to blog over vacation to share pictures and stories with us. I have created a "Guest" log-in account, in case you wish to post comments as well, or if your child wishes to comment on his/her Blogging Buddy from Ms. Davison's class. I will send out a separate email about password information. I look forward to reading about all the winter fun you will have.
Please do not forget that we have a school-wide celebration tomorrow. We will celebrate our warm buzzies all day, and tomorrow is a PJ Day! Please make sure your child wears warm pajamas because we will still have outdoor recess. Please do not send in any slippers or stuffed animals. We will also watch the movie "Polar Express" on our team and in the afternoon, the entire school will gather in the gym for a special sing-along. We are very excited. Thank you to all who have so generously offered to bring in foods and drinks for our celebration party tomorrow.
I hope you will have a wonderful holiday break from school with your family. I hope you will find time to rest and relax, read good books and share your expereinces via blogging or writing in our Vacation Journals.
Have a restful break,
Maria
