Week 15 - November 18 - 22

First I want to apologize for not posting a blog last week, or homework. I was so sick that posting the blog slipped my mind, and I had asked Mr. De La Cruz to write the homework in the communication book, which slipped his mind. So whatever page you child did for homework is fine, and if they didn't do one - they deserved the time off!

This week we are practicing lots for the language festival. We are going to be singing a song by the Beatles called "I Wanna Hold Your Hand." I have changed the words a little bit for them. They know all the words so it just getting them to really perform now! Next Thursday could you please send to school a white shirt and a bright coloured pair of pants. This will be our costume for the performance.
