Get a head start!

I know that you are having a wonderful break! If you would like to get a head start, I have added Study Island assignments that will be due January 11th. Remember to restock on those lost or used art supplies to use in our classroom.

Thank you!

Dear Students and Parents,
Thank you so much for the gift cards, yummy goodies, sweet gifts, and the gift certificate for the massage. You made me feel so special! You are such an exceptional, wonderful class! I am very blessed with such a sweet class.
Lots of love,
Mrs. Haycook

Have a wonderful break!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! I pray that you and your family will have a wonderful break and enjoy spending this precious time together! Relax and enjoy yourself and come back rested and ready to learn. This is also a good time to replenish those art supplies we use in class such as crayons, markers, glue sticks, and scissors.
Lots of Love,
Mrs. Haycook

Students in the Spotlight

Griffin is one of our Students in the Spotlight this week. Last week I noticed how respectful he was to other students. Griffin exhibits integrity and a strong character. He is also a excellent student and a strong athlete. Great Job, Griffin!

Jury Duty

This week we began talking about our responsibilities as a citizen. We learned that as a citizen you may be called to serve on a jury. Well, I guess I am going to demonstrate this responsibility. I must report downtown Monday for jury duty. I may only be there one day. Each day they will let us know if we must report back the next day. I am told that you usually do not have to stay more than three days unless you get picked to serve on a jury. Mrs. Cheryl has made sure that we have an experienced substitute just in case. We will go on as usual. Remember, you may e-mail me with any questions. Thank you!

"Bee" Sure To Remember

* Bring in mittens, scarves, and hats to add to "The Mitten Tree". These will be given to another elementary school in our community.
* Check your couch cushions and cat seats for spare change to donate to "Pennies For Penguins". Our school will be purchasing stuffed penguins in support of Le Bonheur.
* If you would like to help with the cost of postage to mail our packages to our soldier, Ashley, please send in a labeled baggie or envelope.

Holiday Project

As we enter the holiday season, many our families have wonderful traditions, and celebrations. We want to share these with our class. On Monday, December 17th, everyone needs to bring in two items that represent your family and the celebrations you will have this season. Each student will give an oral report describing the items and their family traditions. The oral report needs to be about 3 to 5 minutes. Each student may use a index card, but only to help remember important points. You guys did such an exceptional job on your Character Book Report, so I can not wait to hear about your wonderful traditions.

Thank you for all of you who helped by giving to our soldier!! We still need donations toward the postage of our packages. If you would like to send a few dollars to help, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Again!
