Happy Holidays

Happy Holidays! My very best to you and your families during this special time of year.

When we return from Winter Break we will be roller skating. Yahoo. I always encourage students to bring/wear helmets from home. Yes, we do provide them if needed. If students bring in their own, they can keep them in their hallway locker and bring them to class daily.

Stay active, healthy, and warm.

Week ending 12/11/09

We have been having so much fun bowling! We have 13 lanes set up in the gym. It really does resemble a real bowling alley, except for a few things - like no snack bar, etc. Students have really improved since we started last week. Our written test will be next week, as well as our trip to the AMF Lanes in Bolingbrook. I hope that all students will have their permission slips returned before their trip. 3rd grade goes on Tuesday. 4/5th grade goes on Thursday. Students are most excited, and so are the teachers.
After we return from our Winter Break we will be roller skating. We transform the gym from the bowling alley into the roller rink. Skates are rented and come to us in large crates. It's just terrific. Feel free to come in to watch us and/or help us tie roller skates for the 3rd grade students.
Stay warm, active and healthy.
