Just a Note
Thank  you to everyone that came to the Winter Concerts, your children were very excited and all did such a great job!

The first part of the year has flown by and I am looking forward to the second part with you and your children.  We want to thank you for sharing your lives with us, it is truly a pleasure to share in your lives. 

Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year!

 

Gingerbread Forest
This Wednesday and Thursday morning (12-17 & 12-18) we will be decorating gingerbread forests.  We will have a signup sheet out for items needed for this activity.  Everyone brings in something different and we share items to decorate our trees. 

The afternoon class will be decorating on Thursday  December 18th

Little Acorn Parent/Board Meet-and-Greet
Mark your calendars for January 6th, from 6:30 - 7:30pm, for our Little Acorn Parent/Board Meet-and-Greet. If you are planning on attending, please RSVP in the office by Monday, January 5th. It's a great opportunity to meet our board members, get to know each other, and build a stronger school community.


This week in the Dragonfly Class
This week in the Dragonfly Class we will be finishing up our holiday activities and presents.  There is so much I want to fit in before the end of the year we are going to busy!  On Wednesday and Thursday we will be creating out Gingerbread Forests. We will also be celebrating with other classes on Thursday & Friday in a Holiday Read In and we will watch the movie “The Snowman” upstairs in Jason Lee Hall with other classes as well.


Word Wall

This week we will feature the letter Jj. Please help your child bring in an item that begins with the letter I.  We will only be sharing items that are related to the letter of the week, so if it’s not obvious please give us hint. J
