Announcements

Thank you to all the parents that sent in snacks for Cupcakes for a Cause.  
Thanks for being so flexible with the day change.  We will use the money to 
pay for the crafts we make for our friends at Manatauny Manor.  We will also 
help a family in need and send gifts in a stocking to two servicemen who will 
be overseas for the holidays. 

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.

During the month of December there will be two books reports due.  One will 
be due the week of the 7th and one will be due the week of the 14th.  There 
is no report due this week or the week before Christmas.
