Learning's Fun ~ In Grade One! December 5, 2016

Reminders - Scholastic Book orders due by Friday, December 9
                   - Christmas Concert on Thursday Evening, December 15
                   - Christmas Cheer Board Hamper food in by Friday, December 16

CHRISTMAS CHEER BOARD
Each year our school makes up Hampers for the Christmas Cheer Board and delivers them to families in need.  Each classroom is asked to make up one hamper for one family.  Your child should have brought home a green slip of paper with a few food items listed.  Please bring in those food items to class by next Friday, December 16.  (If you are unable to bring in the food items listed, please let me know and I will make sure that they come to school.)

We are waiting for the exact names and ages of the children in our hamper family and I will let you know those as soon as possible.  If you are interested in buying a Christmas GIFT for one of the children in our family, please let me know.  We are also looking for a school family who is willing to DELIVER the hamper during the weekend of Dec. 17 - 18 (approx.).  Please let me know if your family is interested in helping out with this activity.  Thank you for your help.

RECYCLED BAGS
Our school collected many plastic grocery bags to be recycled.  Some of the schools that participated in this project were given a prize of a bench made of recycled bags and we were one of those schools!  Last week two representatives (one wearing a coat made from plastic bags) from the organization came out to our school to present us with our bench and a flower box.
