Hello Parents! Christmas is right around the corner and that means so is all of our Holiday festivities! Please continue to fill out the daily attestation upon arrival. Also, please continue to keep your child home if they are not feeling their best. We are all in this together!
Important Reminders:

We are going to continue getting into the holiday spirit by reading various holiday books such as “Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer” and “The Night Before Christmas”. This Sunday is the second night of Advent. We will be “lighting” our second advent candle in school and discussing what peace means.
We will be learning the letter Jj and continue to review numbers 1-10, colors and shapes. We will be reading two different Reindeer books as well as some about Snowmen! We will create J is for Jesus for our ABC book.
We will also continue to assemble various special holiday crafts and gifts that will be sent home in our holiday gift bags. They will be presents the children can give to their families.
For Jesus time, we will continue our December prayer which is taken from the last verse in the song Away in a Manger. The prayer goes as follows: “Be near me Lord Jesus, I ask Thee to stay, close by me forever and love me I pray. Bless all the dear children in Your tender care, and take us to Heaven to live with Thee there.” Mrs. Gonzalez will teach the children about Mary and Joseph and their journey to Bethlehem.
