December Updates

Grinch Day

Grinch Day was successful.  It was amazing to see our pod working together and having fun.  The hair do's were incredible!

We also have a Grinch on our door.  We need to help him grow his heart.  Each time a student does a random act of kindness  or good deed they put a heart on him.  Soon he will be covered in hearts.

Oh Christmas Tree & Secret Santa

We are learning about the significance of the tree this time of year.  We have decorated our own tree, making decorations.  We will be discussing the history of the Christmas tree and making our own personal tree.  We are also exchanging gifts on the last day of school by a "SECRET SANTA".  Each student pulled a name out of a box and now will give that student a gift on the last day of school.  The gift can be something the child already owns but is willing to depart with (a book or toy), something made or something bought (max $10).  Please ask your child who's name they have so they can start planning.
