Dear Families,
I want to wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday. Enjoy your time with family and friends. I am thankful for your wonderful children and for all of you. This is a reminder to all to save the date of December 8th from 6-7:30 PM for the Willow Grove Cultural Fair. This will be a night to remember. Families are encouraged to wear clothing that represents their culture. For some this may mean special, customary garments, while for others it means dressing up to make it a special night. This isn't required. It just adds to the fun. Any attire is welcome! Please consider coming to this very special evening. I will see you there. :) Our winter weather is here and for students to play in the snow, they must have snow pants, boots, gloves and a jacket. This applies to both the field and the playground area. This ensures that their clothes, hands and feet are dry for lunch and the remainder of the afternoon. Students who do not have snow pants and boots can still play on the blacktop area. If you would like, your child can keep an extra set of snow gear at Willow Grove to avoid the back-and-forth between home and school. Pleases have your child bring it to Willow Grove in a tote/bag to leave in their cubby. You can also send me a quick email letting me know that you would like the snow pants to stay here at school. Thank you! Also, if your child wears boots to school, he/she will need to bring gym shoes to change into for gym class. They can't participate in gym activities without gym shoes on. If you would like to simply leave a pair of gym shoes at school you can certainly do that. Just let me know what you would. Thanks so much! We have been busy working on informational texts in literacy. We are practicing finding main topics and details in our books. We are also starting some sentence writing and the students are doing great! We are up to 15 "heart words". They all love finding them when they are participating in Read to Self! I am very proud of them. We are also continuing stretching out our CVC (consonant-vowel-consonant) words when reading and writing. Thank you for everything! Enjoy a wonderful Thanksgiving break. Take care! Sincerely, Linda
