The Peter Pan Play was GREAT. The kids REALLY enjoyed themselves. The Pirates came all through the audience more than once. Peter flew OVER the audience sprinkling pixie dust on everyone. There was lots of singing and ACTION. Then we had a carpet picnic in the lobby with our Chick Fil A food. A special thanks goes out to Kinae's Mom and Alexus' La La for coming along with us as chaperones. We are glad you could join us. THANK YOU>
I heard that they are extending the play to run until New Years because of the high demand to see it. If you want to see a good play then check it out.
I hope everyone was able to go to the Tree lighting in the park last week where our choir sang and the parade on Saturday. The holiday season is in full swing.
We have two more weeks left in our 2nd nine week period. Again I can't stress enough how important it is to have your child come to school if possible. We are getting final grades these last few weeks, doing make up work, and Christmas activities.

All Week Long in the Lunchroom students will be able to shop in the gift store FOR YOU. We sent a flyer home telling about it. If you want your child to purchase Christmas gifts for you then please send money with them any day this week. Sponsored by the PTA.

Wednesday we will have a special Math lesson by Mrs. Pam from AMSTI.

Thursday we will have counseling with Mrs. Bush. Reading story quiz too.

This coming FRIDAY we will be DIBELS testing. Your child will read three different passages for one minute each. They will take the highest and lowest scores and discard them. AND keep the middle score. Our goal on Friday is 68 Words per minute. So basically two passages will have to be over 68 words. Our nightly reading passages you have been practicing will help with Dibels. Please make sure your child gets a good night sleep on Thursday night and eats breakfast on Friday morning. Thank you.

Friday is our next Gotcha party too. Busy day. Please allow your child to bring a BOARD GAME to school that day. It will come home the same day.

Friday we will have our regular Spelling and Language tests.
In Math we will have a County test on Tuesday and our regular grade on Friday.

Next Thursday, Dec. 16th is breakfast with Santa and our class Party day.

Have A Great Week> Mrs. Mainor
