Field Trip to Murray
Our field-trip is this Thursday.  We need $6.50 and a permission form from all students.   We will be going to the MSU Curris Center to watch the Polar Express and then will go to Fern Terrace Nursing Home.  We would like for all students to have a gift to give to one of the elderly.  We will also be giving them an ornament we made in class.  I know this is a very special day for them because they all love little kids!  After we sing at the nursing home, we will go to Nick’s to eat.  All food will be pre-ordered, so if you are planning on attending—please let us know!   If you are planning on following the bus from school, we plan to leave around 8:00 am. 

Winter Musical--A note from Mrs. Beth
Our musical is quickly approaching and I'm very proud of the student’s hard work. I hope that you will be able to attend one of our performances at either 9:30am or 1:00pm.  Hope to see you there!

Spelling Words
We need students studying these words every day.  Even if it is for 5 minutes as you drive down the road!  We are trying to prepare them for first grade which will start off with 12-15 words each week.  When they are young is the best time to teach good study skills!!
