Thank you so much to our wonderful room parents
for planning such a fantastic Christmas party on December
19th. I also cannot say thank you enough for the generosity
and kindness shown to me by this class. I feel so very
blessed. I missed you all so much, but I watched the
DVD a few times just to see your bright, smiling faces.
It feels so good to be back in school!
- California Mission photo album reports are due January
8, 2009.
- We begin reviewing division this week. This is why
it’s so important to have memorized those multiplication
facts by now.
- Brr! It’s so cold! Make sure you bring a school
cardigan and/or fleece with you everyday. You can also
wear a white turtleneck as part of the uniform.
