Mrs. Burch's Weekly Update (12/9)

Happy Friday! 😊

PLEASE make sure your child brings their winter gear each day, along with a change of shoes! Many kiddos are coming to school with only vests or sweatshirts--no coats! We need to make sure kiddos have gear to play outside in the winter. PLEASE remind them they need their gear. Some families find it helpful to leave a pair of snowpants and boots at school. Whatever works for your family is great!

We still need some items for our Holiday Activities! Please see the sign-up! Thank you in advance for your donations! If you would like to read a picture book to our class the week before break, please see the Holiday Zoom Readers sign-up sheet!

We are still in need of individually wrapped snacks for our classroom morning snack bin. Thank you in advance for your donations! 

We earned our classroom reward for bringing in over 200 cans for the canned food drive! Yippee! We will celebrate with a holiday movie the afternoon of December 21! Students will vote on a holiday movie that's rated G to watch that day.
