Our
stories of the week included The Snowman, the classic story by
Raymond Briggs. A little
boy builds a snowman and it magically comes to life.
The snowman takes the boy on an adventure to the North Pole. In the morning the boy awakes to find that the sun has melted
his snowman. Students
wrote what happened after the snowman melted.
Other stories included The Lady with the Alligator Purse, A
Snowman just Named Bob, and The Little Matchgirl by Hans
Christian Anderson. Reading
Strategies
As
I listen to each child read individually, we use the following reading
strategies. These
strategies can certainly be used when your child reads to you at home.
It is important to read with your child every night.
The more experiences they will have with reading the more they
will want to read.

Christmas
Program
The music department will present their elementary Christmas program on Tuesday, December 16 at 7:00 PM. All students are to “dress up” for the event. Nice dresses or skirts, slacks, and shirts are all appropriate. All students should report to our classroom by 6:45 PM for line up. Math Students have been learning to add and subtract using the number line, as well as counting with a calculator. Next week they will be introduced to dimes. We have begun to make our school store part of our weekly routing. The store is open every Wednesday during math time. Thank you to all parents who generously contributed items to the school store. Students earn money to spend in the school store by saying a nice compliment to a classmate. Vacation
Holiday
Break begins after dismissal on Friday, December 19. School will resume
on Monday, January 5, 2004. Have
a happy and healthy holiday season! STAYING
HEALTHY
The
flu season is upon us and I’m sure if you’ve been staying tune to
the national news, you’ve heard of the outbreaks scattered around the
country. Please make sure your child comes to school dressed
appropriately for the weather. Long
sleeves shirts and socks are essential for winter weather.
Drinking plenty of fluids and getting enough sleep is also very
important. Our class
has a rule that we must wash hands before eating, after going to the
bathroom, and blowing our noses. Mrs. Eichberger's Main Page |
