Mrs. Burch's Weekly Update--Holiday Edition! (12/22)

Happy Friday! We made it! We had a fun and busy week! Thank you for all the thoughtful gifts and cards. I LOVE being your child's teacher and I am so thankful for you! I hope you have a wonderful holiday break with your kiddos!

A few reminders:

  • Don't forget that we are off school the next two weeks for Holiday Break! School resumes on January 8, 2024. I hope you have a Wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year!
  • When we return from break our student teacher, Miss Bertolin, will be joining our classroom! She's popped in a couple times this fall and the kids seem to enjoy her already!
  • If you are interested in sending in white lunch bags for a snowflake craft in January, I added them to our Classroom Amazon Wish List. We can also use individually wrapped snacks like goldfish/pretzels. We're also running low on tissues and it's definitely sniffle season! Thank you for all your donations for our classroom. I appreciate you!!
  • Please make sure your kiddos bring their snow gear when the weather is cold and snowy! They cannot play in the snow without snowpants and boots.
  • Roo will be back to Hutchings before we know it!! 🐾 If you would like to purchase an item for Roo's return, please visit Roo's Amazon Wish List
