December is such a busy month. Here's some reminders.
This Friday, 12/11, third grade is doing a skit about Our Lady of Guadelupe. It will be at 10:50 in the church. All students are participating in one way or another. Parents are welcome.
Next Thursday, 12/17, is the Christmas music concert. The students have been working hard on the Orf instruments playing the harmony for Feliz Navidad. The concert starts at 7:00. Students need to be dropped off in the classroom at 6:30 so parents can go get a seat. Students need to wear dressy clothes. NO JEANS or SWEATS. Also, many students will be sitting on the ground, so make sure that whatever your student wears, he/she is able to get up and down to the ground easily.
On Friday, 12/18, we will have our class Christmas celebration. We will order pizza for lunch. Please send in $2.00 to cover the cost of this. We will also be building gingerbread houses. A letter went home requesting supplies for this. Students #1-8 need to bring one box of plain graham crackers and one bag of small candy. Students #9-16 need to bring one tub of white frosting and one bag of small candy. Thanks for your help with the supplies. Making the gingerbread houses is a third grade tradition, and is always a lot of fun every year. If any parents want to volunteer in the classroom on this day, from 9:30-10:30, it would be great!
Friday, 12/18, students may wear red, white, and/or green free dress with a Santa hat. Don't forget, it's a half day. Dismissal is at noon.
