Before Winter Break....
Well, we made it through almost half of the year and are soon coming up on our winter break!! This week, I will be incorporating some winter activities with our academics. On Thursday, we will have a Read-In and students can wear pajamas and bring their favorite reading accessories (favorite book, blanket, and pillow). During the day, we will also have an author visiting as well as the celebration of our winter break through our PTO.
Since this is a long break, I will not be sending green folders home until after we return from break. That's less for everyone to keep up with over the holidays. As you can tell, we will be very busy! Please let me know if you have any questions
