December 3

Here is some news for the week.

We will be going to the Belmont Fire Station on Tuesday for a field trip. Drivers so far are me, Courtney, Shanna, and Martin. If you are able to drive please sign up tomorrow on the list. We will be leaving at 10 and hopefully, if the weather is acceptable we will picnic at Laurelhurst Park. If not we will just come back to school for lunch. Bring a sack lunch!

Phina is signed up for Science Friday this week and I hear that we are going to be doing something related to gravity. Can't wait Phina.

The Scholastic Book orders have been a little confusing so far but no more. There is a Scholastic box on the entryway shelf where people can drop off orders in the envelope for orders. Also, we will try to use this box for order pickup depending on the volume of orders received.

On Sunday the Magnus family will be hosting us for our 2nd Class Potluck of the year.
The event will also be designed as a winter clothes swap so bring your old kids clothes so that other families can use and abuse them. Bring a dish, drinks or snacks if you are able. I know it is far away for many families, but our SE crew has to deal with that issue constantly. There house is really cool and spacious and down the block from Lents Park. It should be a good time. Lets go see how it is on the other side of Burnside.
EVENT INFO: Sunday, 12/9, 11:30 to 1:30

Please remember to mark your calendar for Friday, December 14th at 6:30. We will be holding our annual Performance Night in the Multipurpose Room. There will be singing, dancing and two plays performed by K.1.2 students. It is always an entertaining event and the kids love it. That said, if anyone knows how to sew yellow jacket costumes, please let me know.
