Reading skills web-site. www.macmillanmh.com New web-site students liked
this week is www.wordle.net. Mrs. Barr, the Spanish instructor, also gave a
web-site for students to learn Spanish words. It is www.pumerosa.com
Christmas gift exchange = There will not be a class gift exchange this
year. However, if you want to buy things for all students you may.
Examples: pencils, suckers, candy canes, etc… There are 18 students in the
class. I also would rather you buy for the students instead of teacher
gifts. You could buy dry erase markers (low odor please), scissors, books,
board games etc…. If anyone has items for the Christmas auction, that would
be great. These items can be used or new. If they are new, please limit it
to around $1.00 or $2.00. (toys, books, games, etc…..)
