Hi everyone,
I can't believe we are in our last week of school before the Christmas holidays! It is a busy week for our class. I know Mrs. Teague has a fun activity planned for Wednesday- please remember to send in $2 to pay for the icing!
I forgot to send my notice home for what we are doing Friday - it will go home today. We are having a pancake breakfast, but in order to make this successful, I'm going to need some help! Please let me know if you can stay to volunteer for that morning - from 8:30-9:30. I also have a list posted on our classroom door of things we will need. Please sign up to bring something there - or e-mail me to let me know and I'll add your name to the list! It will be a pajama day - so send the kids in their jammies! We will be joining Mr Mulholland's class at 9:30 to watch a movie. After recess there is our Christmas assembly and sing-a-long! Parents are welcome to join us!
I hope you all got a chance to see the Christmas play last week - our kids did great! They were excited to be a part of it and you should all be proud of how well they did. I don't know about you, but I have had "White Beard" stuck in my head all weekend! Ugh!

Christmas Countdown
Things are busy in Division 14! You can feel the excitement in the air - the kids are looking forward to Christmas! We hear a lot about Santa and everyone's Elf on the Shelf :)
There is a lot going on and there is a lot to remember - hopefully this list will cover most things.
1) Please make sure you kids have warm coats and hats, scarves, mitts, etc. It was REALLY cold out today (I was doing recess supervision and was freezing!). There were quite a few kids who didn't have a coat. I know they are running about keeping warm, but if they have a coat here, I'll make sure they wear it!
2) I've set up a temporary "lost and found" in our classroom. There are coats, hats, mittens, socks (yes, socks!) water bottles and miscellaneous lunch kit containers in it. Feel free to pop up and rummage through it before I sent it down to the school lost and found.
3) Report cards went home yesterday. Please sign the back of the folder and return it AND the envelope so they can be reused for next term. Thanks!
4) We are setting up an "Imagination Station" in our class where the students use their imagination to make wonderful creations :) We are collecting small items for this - things like milk jug or pop bottle lids, toilet paper rolls, different types of paper or "crafty" things they can add to their creations. Things you find in your recycle bins! We don't have a lot of space, so only small items please!
5) Next Friday the 13th we will have our guest artist back in to finish up our secret project! Please remember to have your kids wear clothes that can get messy as we'll be painting.
6) Finally - the Christmas concert is coming fast and the kids are excited! There is a dress rehearsal on Tuesday and your child will need to wear/have their costumes. Our class should be wearing red and green clothing and Santa or Elf hats. If you don't have one, please let us know as I have a few extra Santa hats at home I can bring in. My daughter needs an elf hat and I just picked one up at Dollarama in Cloverdale for $1. They will also need to wear their costumes on Wednesday and Thursday for the performance. If you want them to leave their hats here - please have them clearly labelled and we'll keep them in a bag and hand them out in time for the show so they don't go missing.
Hopefully everyone got tickets for the show. The two afternoon shows are during school time, but on Thursday Dec 12th, the evening show is at 6:30. If your child can not make that show, please let us know as soon as possible. You will drop your child off at our classroom at 6pm - we will be joining the other grade 2 classes for some Christmas fun while we wait for our part of the performance. You can pick them up at our classroom at the end of the concert (7:30ish). I'm looking forward to spending that "non-school" time with them!
Thanks for letting me bombard you with information! Have a great weekend!
