WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 20th! AKA: PARTY DAY!

Party day is just around the corner, so here are a few reminders and helpful info!! Third grade parties are set for Wednesday  morning from 9:00 – 10:00!!!! We are so excited to show you the christmas decorations in our room, our presents under our tree, and our elf named Emma. The kids named her themselves! Many of you have sent back the blue form about helping out or sending items to help our room mom. Stacie Hawley has stepped up for us and has contacted those for help! THANKS STACIE!!! We are very excited about all the fun we are going to have! Students need to bring a small gift bag to carry all of their gifts home from their friends and teachers. Please have your child’s name on the bag! We have 11 girls and 9 boys in our class (heads up for gifts if you need it). Also BIG reminder… Please do NOT bring any homemade foods or foods that contain peanuts! If you have any questions or concerns feel free to email me or comment on here! Can’t wait to see everyone!!
