Well, here we are! The kids are excited, but controlling it so far. Our concert is tonight at 7:00. We'll be performing on the left side of the beachers, so you may want to sit on the left side of the auditorium. The classroom door will open at 6:45. The kids will wait with me until it's their turn to perform. We will return to the classroom after the finale. Please make sure I know when you've picked your child up from the classroom.
Tuesday is a big day. Santa (there, I said his name) will visit at 12:00. I have gifts for the kids to open after that. We'll start cooking and putting together the food for our Fiesta and will eat at 1:00. We'll play some games, take a few pictures and get ready to go home.
Wednesday we'll take down and put away decorations. We'll give the classroom a thorough cleaning, rearrange desks, and get ready for a new start in the new year. Sometime during the afternoon we'll have a visit from Mrs. Long and her puppy guide dog - this is a schedule change.
We've had fun studying Mexico and will refer to it all year long. During these last three days we'll also talk a lot about the Arctic Tundra. Please help us connect our learning at home by asking us questions, telling us what you know, or help us find more information on our topics. It makes what we learn so much more meaningful when our families get involved. Thank you for all that you do!
Regular schedules including nightly homework will resume on January 4. Thank you for your flexibility during these last two weeks.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
