Family Feast
The Family Feast will be this Wednesday. If you are having lunch with your child, please pick them up from the classroom door.
THIS IS A VERY BUSY DAY AT CRAM. ALLOW PLENTY OF TIME TO PARK AND GET TO THE CLASSROOM DOOR BY 11:00.
ANY STUDENTS NOT
HAVING LUNCH WITH THEIR FAMILY WILL BE WALKED TO THE CAFETERIA AT 11:15.
IF YOU ARE RUNNING LATE TO HAVE LUNCH, YOU WILL NEED TO FIND YOUR
CHILD IN THE CAFETERIA. THANKS FOR YOUR PATIENCE ON THIS DAY.
PTSA Holiday Store
The
information about this event is coming home Monday. This is a PTSA
fundraiser that will allow your child to shop and pick out some special
gifts for family members. I will be
sure the students make it over to the store.
Holiday Performance
The
Kindergarten students will perform some special Christmas songs to
celebrate the season for you! All are invited! Parents, grandmas,
grandpas, aunts, uncles etc. No need to be board approved for this.
Our performance will start at 10:30 in the cafeteria. Please allow
plenty of time to park and get to the cafeteria on this day. This day
will be a minimum day for kindergarten students only. If you have older
students, they will be on regular schedule this day. All kindergartens
will attend school from 7:45 to 11:30. Parents who attend the
performance will be able to take their children home from the classroom
door immediately following the performance. This will be a treat you
won't want to miss!
Holiday Surprises
I
am asking each student to send in 24 small trinkets to share with the
class for the holidays. These may be small toys, pencils, erasers,
small candies. We will be filling small stockings with these trinkets
so please be mindful of their size. These can be brought to school any
time over the next few weeks.
Holiday Centers
We
will be having our holiday centers on December 16 before the
performance. I would love parent help on this day. You can plan to
stay from 7:45 until the performance. You will have plenty of time to
head over and find space to enjoy the performance. All volunteers in
the classroom must be board approved. Please message me if you'd like
to help on this day.
Share Homework
This week's share homework will be to decorate the holiday tree in their homework folder.
