Thank you, parents, for remembering to send in all of the warm winter gear! The students are getting very good at getting themselves dressed and making sure that they have everything before they go to lunch!

This Wednesday our class will be heading to the Old Log Theater to see their holiday children's show - The Elves and the Shoemaker. Here's a brief review of the show: "An upbeat, whimsical romp about a troupe of elves who help restore a poor cobbler to prosperity by making a pair of the most fantastic and magical shoes that the town has ever seen. This new heart-warming adaptation, featuring original music, tells a tale not only of midnight enchantment, but of generosity and virtue rewarded. It's the perfect holiday story and is a great way to introduce children of all ages to the magic and fun of theater."
*There will be many other school groups at the theater when we go. Unfortunately, because of the limited seating, we are unable to take any extra parent volunteers.
*We will leave SH at 9:20 and return at approximately 11:45. We will eat our regular lunch when we return to school.

This week we will begin our annual Holiday's Around the World tour. K-1 students will take their passports and "travel" to Mexico (Ms. Haugen's room) on Tuesday to learn about their holiday traditions. On Thursday, they will head to Israel (Ms. Logelin's room). This is a great time for students to learn about other cultures and how their traditions are similar and different from our own.
