STONE SOUP THIS WEDNESDAY!!

I know I put it in the Homework Letter this past week, but I wanted to remind everyone to please prepare a vegetable to bring in to add to our pot of Stone Soup this Wednesday.  I selected vegetables by table groups, which makes it easier for keeping a balanced soup.  Just a small sandwich bag with one prepared vegetable per student will be plenty.  Again, if any parents wish to come in and help with this activity, please email or talk to me beforehand so that I don't have too many volunteers on the day of the event.  In case your child forgot which vegetable to bring, here is the list again:

Red Group – chopped onion
Green Group – chopped celery
Orange Group – chopped carrots
Blue Group – chopped bell pepper
Yellow Group – cubed potatoes
Black Group – shredded cabbage

Don't worry about the main ingredient, I will take care of bringing in a nice big stone for our Stone Soup!!  Have a great weekend, and remember, only 3 more school days before a nice long Winter Vacation (Dec. 20 - Jan. 6).  If I don't see you before the holidays, have a wonderful time with your family and loved ones, and I will see you all again in 2013!!

Thanks to all who attended the Holiday Hop!

It was such great fun, and my family enjoyed seeing so many of you at the event.  Skylar loved running around and playing with all the children, and Mrs. Linnet took lots of wonderful pictures.  I hope that your family enjoyed the event as much as ours did.  Happy Holidays everyone!!

Just wanted to give a reminder to everyone that our school is having a fun new event this year to celebrate the winter festivities, and it is called the Holiday Hop!  We will begin with a Spaghetti Feast, then have family fun activities including: Santa's Workshop, Cookie Decorating, music, dancing, and raffles.  The event runs from 5:30 - 8:30pm on Friday, December 7th.  My family has signed up for the 6pm dinner time, and hopefully we will see some of you there!!
