Today the kids and I were counting how many school days we have until the Christmas Concert and the holidays - 12! With that being said, the last couple weeks, I have been giving you a daily schedule of what we have been doing in our class time, but we are so busy preparing for the concert that our days are just not going to look the same. We are still finding time for academics, not to worry, and next week and the following week we will have assessments, but our time is dominated by rehearsing, and they are doing a great job! Along with the nativity we are singing Silent Night, 10 Little Elves, and We Wish You A Merry Christmas.
You will see in the kids communication books that I mention a Secret Santa gift exchange. On December 19th, in the afternoon, we will have a small Christmas party and share presents with each other. Please do not spend more than $500nt. Please, have the gift at school no later than Monday December 17. We have a Christmas Tree in the classroom and I think it would be really nice to have gifts under the tree for a couple days for the kids to feel excited about. If you have any questions or concerns about this, please let me know.
At this point, I am planning on giving the students a break during the holidays as I too will be taking a break. If you would like your child to do some extra work, feel free to ask and I don't mind preparing something for you. Please let me know in the communication book so I can think of something for your child.
