December 9, 2004 Dear Parents, We have a new student in our classroom. His name is Raul Rivera. He moved into our district from Wellston. He has two younger brothers: Oscar and David. We are very excited to have a new friend in our classroom. Now we are back up to eleven boys and seven girls. Enclosed is your child’s Unit 3 Checking Progress (math test). Students had the opportunity to fix any errors last Friday. If they were unable to correct their errors on their own, then they had to work one-on-one with support. Overall students were able to correct their errors on their own and had good concept of time, odd/even numbers, money, addition and subtraction. On Monday we have the opportunity to see "The Polar Express" movie at the Vogue Theatre in Manistee. You should have received a letter from Mr. Hughes in your child’s homework folder on Tuesday. Please be sure to read the letter, sign and return the permission slip, and send in a $3.00 admission fee in an envelope or ziploc bag with your child’s name written on the outside by Monday. On Tuesday your child’s Onekama Public Library books are due. We will not be walking to the library to return them, but I will be happy to return them for you. If you would like to return them yourself, then you may return them to any Manistee County Public Library by the 14th. On Wednesday our annual Christmas program will be held in the gymnasium at 7:00 p.m. Your child needs to arrive to school at 6:45 p.m. in the classroom dressed in his/her Christmas best. Girls are invited to wear dresses and boys are invited to wear dress shirts and dress pants.

On Thursday the Onekama Public
Library is hosting a Holiday Story Hour with Santa at
3:30 p.m. Is winter here? On the days that winter is here, please be sure that your child has proper snow clothing that includes winter coat, snow pants, boots, hat, and gloves. Students will need to keep a dry pair of shoes at school, because they need to take off their snow boots after recess. This will avoid us sitting on wet, dirty carpet. If your child has extra snow pants and boots, then they are welcome to keep them at school for the week. On Fridays all belongings will be sent home for a good cleaning as will our cubbies. Also due to the cold, wet weather students will go to the gymnasium for lunch recess everyday throughout the winter season. We’ve had several incidents with birthday invitations. If you need to have birthday invitations distributed, then please give them to me. I will put the invitations in student’s Thursday Folders so this will avoid hurt feelings. I would need invitations to me by Wednesday in order to give me ample time to distribute them in each child’s Thursday Folder. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. The following dates you may want to add to your calendar:
