12/04/15

Dear Parents,
We have had a busy, yet educational week in Kindergarten. With the sounds and scents of Christmas in the air, we are studying about Christmas traditions around the world.  We have "traveled" to Mexico and the Netherlands.  We are learning a new Bible story each day using our Advent calendar.  We are counting down to Christmas and Jesus' birth.  In addition we are learning our songs and sign language for our Christmas play on Friday, December 18th at 9:30am.

There are many reminders this week. I have listed them below:

Next Wednesday, December 9th at 8:45am we will be going on a short field trip to the Hampton Senior Center in Vancouver.  I have enclosed a permission slip in everyone's OWL folder, but please see Mrs. Lee or Mrs. Palmer if you still need one.  We will be singing songs and reading some Christmas books together. This is a wonderful experience for both the kids and the seniors who live there!

Spirit Week is December 14-17
Mon. Christmas Socks
Tues. Red and Green day
Wed.  Christmas Pajama Day
Thurs. Crazy Christmas Day


Thursday, December 18 is our class Christmas Party.  More details will be coming soon! :)

Friday, December 19th is our Christmas Play at 9:30am and then dismissal at noon.  You are welcome to take your child home after the program in the morning or they may stay until noon.

Please read through the following verses with your child.  The school will be reading it for our Christmas program together.

Luke 2:8-14:
8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.
10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord.
12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,
14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
