The Month of November

We were certainly busy through the month of November.  Despite my absences, the class managed to continue with normal routines for the most part.  If you happen to be in the school and see Mrs. Hanchett in the near future, please thank her for all her hard work and dedication to the classroom and students while I was absent.  Our building project is coming to a close and I want to thank everyone who donated time and supplies.  We really appreciate it.  The benches will be complete before the holiday break.  We'll keep them in the classroom for a while as an alternative seating arrangement for morning meeting and other circle times. 

I hope everyone had a restful Thanksgiving break. 

News and Notes from Around the School

Music - please make sure that your child has shoes to wear in the music room.  Our class has music on Tuesday mornings at 8:10.  If it helps to keep a pair of shoes at school there is space for them on our shoe/boot rack in the hallway.  It is really important to keep wet boots off of the carpeted risers so that other students don't sit on wet spots throughout the day.

Lost and Found - Please make sure to label your children's belongings and check the lost and found down by the Gym doors periodically.  At the end of each month, all items are donated to the Listen.

Holiday Concert - December 12th @ 10:30 is the 2/3 performance for parents.  Please go directly to the gym and not to the classroom.  We will see you after the concert for a gathering in the classroom.  More information to come on that soon.
