Upcoming Events for Dec.12-21

This Tuesday our class will be going to the Animal Hospital of Soquel. I sent home the green parent chaperone forms on Friday. Please let me know if you are coming on this field trip and did not receive one. If you have any pictures from a former field trip, send them in soon. I have only about 10 pictures in the box for our yearbook and would like to have more for Mrs. Field to look through when the time comes.

The class holiday party will be Friday, December 21st from 12:20-1:15. If you have any ideas for a fun center, let me know. Also, if you have any scraps of wrapping paper or extra cards you are not using, please send them in with your child. I would like to use these items to make cards for our kinder reading buddies.

One more request:
Please send your child in with several pencils and a sharpener to use on a daily basis. Many students are wasting pencils and/or not coming to school prepared. When they do not have pencils, class time is wasted.

Thanks for your support and all you do for our classroom and students!

Field Trip

Hello all! The permission slips for next weeks field trip to the Animal Hospital of Soquel were sent home on Friday. Attached was a note from the 3rd grade team regarding field trip costs for the remainder of the year. Please make the checks payable to the Parent Alliance. In the memo, note "field trip funds for Mrs. Maraldo or Room 23." Thanks!

With the holidays coming up, if anyone has an art project they would like to share with the class, please let me know. A few parents are coming in this Friday to teach about Hanukkah. Students always enjoy having their parents share in the classroom.

That's all for now! Happy December!
