Classroom News January 9-13th , 2012
We would like to thank everyone for remembering us at Christmas with your special gifts. We greatly appreciated the class gift cards given as well as the individual gifts. What a blessing! Your kindness, thoughtfulness, and generosity are greatly appreciated! J
· Keep encouraging your child to read and fill in their Book It calendar!
· Each class is asked to donate the beverages for the upcoming basketball tournament in January. Refer to the list attached to determine what your child(ren) can donate. Bring donations the week of the tournament. 3rd grade is asked to bring Diet Coke. You can start bringing these donations in when we return from break.
· On Thursday, January 5th, we had a special assembly presented by Mad Science to promote our upcoming after school program run by them. Additional information was sent home on Friday concerning the upcoming after school class. Look for that form in your child’s folder and ask them if they would like to be a part of the 5-week course!
· Please see the attached list to see if you are signed up to help in the kitchen for the upcoming Basketball Tournament beginning Thursday, January 12th. This signup was done at the beginning of the year when you filled out the classroom form. E-mail Miss Alexander if you have any problems with your designated time.
· We would like to invite you to attend the 3rd Grade Chapel Service on Wednesday, January 25th at 8:40 a.m. in the church. This service is entitled “The Good Shepherd” and will involve participation from each student in some way! It will be a blessed morning of praise to our savior!
· It’s the time of year when school supplies begin running out (or markers begin to dry). Please check with your child to see if they need any new supplies.
As always, thanks for your help and support! J
Mrs. Voigt & Miss Alexander
