We will be reading the books “Big Earth Little Me” and “The Cleanup Surprise.”

For Jesus time, we will be learning about David and Jonathan. This is the first week in Advent, please have your child “light” the purple candle in the Advent wreath they brought home last week. We are beginning to prepare ourselves for Christmas.
