It's (almost) That Time of Year Again!:
Here is a heads up on things to come in December.
Each child needs to bring in a big shoe box by Monday, December 2nd.
We might be putting on our own Holiday Play. I will find out if there will be time for us to practice along with the school's Christmas play, which there is no tentative date yet scheduled.
Christmas Gift Ideas:
If you would like to give your child a book for Christmas from our book order, please put the order in an envelope and let me know that it is a gift order so that I can wrap it for you to give it to your child for Christmas.
I am not expecting anything for Christmas, but if you are thinking of buying me something I would love to continue to add to our classroom. Here are some gift ideas and suggestions:
-gift certificates from Borders and/or Barnes and Nobles
-gift certificates from Target or Wal-mart (This is where I purchase the cassette players for our listening center, which one already needed to be replaced).
-gift certificates from Lakeshore Learning (the teacher store at the corner of
Westshore/Kennedy)
-books for our classroom
If you would like to give me a personal gift, then here are some other ideas and suggestions:
-gift certificates to Remington`s Steakhouse, Carrabbas, Buca de Beppo, Maggianos,
and/or Outback
-gift certificates to the Mall
-gift certificates to Borders and/or Barnes and Nobles (I love books!)
-gift certificates to the movies (AMC) or Blockbuster video
I hope this was helpful!
