Please start saving empty toliet paper rolls for an Advent project.  Please 
send them in with you child as the rolls become empty.

Thank you to all the parents that sent in dry erase markers, colored pencils, 
dry erase erasers.  They come in handy for our many projects.
  

Please note that we have two early dismissals this month.  This Thursday is 
Confirmation and dismissal is 11:30.  Also, we will have Mass @ 9:00 am and 
early dismissal on Wednesday, November 25 @ 11:30 before the Thanksgiving 
Holiday.  Classes resume Monday, November 30.

We are working on a very exciting Christmas project in Writing and Social 
Studies.  We have received a list of students from all over the United States 
including Canada.  We will send a card from A1 and wait to receive our 
cards.  Then we will discuss all the different states we received cards 
from.  We ask each child to bring in a stamp to help with postage and 
handling.  Thank you to all the parents who already sent in a stamp.

On Monday December 7, we will go to the Boyertown Planetarium to see the 
show "Star of Bethlehem."  The cost is $5.00 to cover the entrance fee and 
the bus.  We are not taking chaperones this time.  We will leave school at 
9:40 and come back 11:15.  We will wear regular school uniforms and be back 
for lunch.

First Grade has Cupcakes for a Cause on Friday December 4.  If any one is 
interested in baking or buying 3 dozen snacks individually wrapped, please 
let me know.  We need 5 bakers from each room.
