December

Welcome back! Hope you had a great Thanksgiving. There are 3 weeks left until Christmas break. We have a lot to get done. We will be studying 9 different countries and their Christmas traditions. We will be making things from each country as well as making some food from a few of the countries. The countries we are learning about are" Australia, Israel, Germany, Africa, Mexico, Italy, Holland, France and Sweden. If you know of any traditions or food from a country please let me know.

Homecoming!

The kids had a blast at "Homecoming." We learned the SUU song in just 3 days. I was very impressed. They looked great. Pics will be posted soon. Have a great weekend!!!

P.S. No spelling next week. Have a great Thanksgiving break!!!

Movie

Friday- We are going to watch the movie "Where The Wild Things Are." It should be really good, maybe alittle scary. We are leaving right when school starts and should be back around 11:00.

Behavior Party

Thank you to all the parents that brought stuff for our party. They loved the ice cream/rootbeer float/movie party. They deserved it!

Movie

The first grade was supposed to go to the movie "Where The Wild Things Are" on October 23rd. The movie theater is being difficult, so we are going to go in November. All students are going great and i'm positive that everyone will be able to go. It is rated "PG" so we will send home permission slips soon.

Readers Theater

This month, our class will be doing a readers theater on the book "The Little Old Lady Who Wasn't Afraid Of Anything." Each student has a part that they need to learn. We will try to practice every morning and then in a few weeks we will be performing it to some of the other classes and to the parents. I will let you know more as it gets closer. It should be really fun for them!

Thank You!

For everyone that donated apples or applesauce......THANK YOU!!! We had fun doing all of the apple activities. Don't forget to wear SUU shirts on Tuesdays!
