We will be making Gingerbread houses on the 18th of

December. If you would like to donate goodies or your
time, please go to signupgenius.com to donate, it really
helps to insure that we do not receive duplicate items.
On the 19th of December we will be having hot chocolate and cupcakes. On that day we would also like to
have a book/gift exchange. If you would please send in
a new book that is gift-wrapped then each child can
participate in the exchange and receive the gift of
literacy. The children have really enjoyed this gift exchange in years past!
Please remember that I will also be sending home a
Personal Narrative graphic organizer so that your
child can make notes on what they did over Winter
Break. This will be another story added to their Young
Authors book.
