Happy Holidays everyone!!!!

Can you believe it is this time of year already? Wow! Time sure does fly by fast. Before you know it we will be saying our good byes and moving onto next year. Well, knowing how fast time can pass us by, please keep in mind that second quarter will soon be coming to an end and students need to make sure that they are staying caught up. Students received their progress reports and their missing assignments report today, so they all should know if they have things that still need to be turned in, or if they are all caught up. I have about 7 students who are all caught up and the rest of the class has 2 or more missing assignments, so be sure to talk with your child about anything they might be missing. We will be having our after school class tomorrow, Thurs., Dec. 2, if any students need any extra help or need to get caught up on a few things.

The Choir and Orchestra students will be having their concert on Friday, Dec. 10 at 2:30. If you have a child in either one of these programs, please come watch them perform.

We will be having a Christmas party on Friday, Dec., 17 and I have sent home a sign up sheet and a letter explaining what we will be doing for the party. If your child can bring something for the class party, please just mark next to the item they would like to bring and send the letter back to school with them, so I know what we will have and what we won't. We will be having a gift exchange that day, as well. Girls will need to buy a gift for a girl and boys will need to buy a gift for a boy. Please, do NOT go over $3.00 for a gift. Keep the gift simple. If you are not able to get a gift at this time, please let me know and I will do what I can to help you out with one.

We will be making fudge in a bag for our final experiment in matter. We will be doing this on Wed., Dec. 15. We are asking for a .50 cent donation, if possible, to help us buy the stuff we need to make it. I hate asking for any donation this time of year, so if you can't donate the .50 cents, it is no big deal, please don't worry about it.

We will be starting the Christmas break after school on Fri., Dec. 17th and we will be out of school until Jan. 2nd. Students will return to school on Mon., Jan. 3, 2011.

I wish all of you parents a very Merry Christmas and a Happy, Happy New Year. May God Bless you all. Thank you so much for all of your help. Sincerely, Mrs. Little
