December 12th, 2013

Happy Thursday! Tomorrow will be the last spelling test for this calendar year and there will be no homework sent home for next week. You are welcome and encouraged as alway to read and practice spelling and math concepts over break.

Next week we will be making gingerbread houses. We have already started collecting milk cartons. We are just in need of prepackaged frosting, graham crackers, and candy decoration.

Next week on Thursday, December 19^th, is our roller skating field trip! If you have not yet turned in your permission form, another one has been attached to this newsletter. Remember your child cannot attend the field trip unless the permission form is returned and signed. The cost of the trip is six dollars. We are still looking for some parent chaperones and drivers, so if you are free that day, we’d love you have you join us! Helmets are not provided by the roller rink and are recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics. If you do not own a bike helmet and would like your child to wear one to the rink, you can go to one of the local fire departments in town (there is one right near Denali by at 122 E. 4^th Ave) and have your child fitted with a helmet for free! More information about this program can be found at http://www.anchoragebikehelmets.org/.
