Holiday Concert Pictures




12-21-12

Today we talked about a few more holidays around the world and Senora played a video talking about Christmas in Mexico.  It told about Las Posadas, Christmas, and The Three Kings Day.  Then we had to do some business-we took a Math test and a Social Studies Quiz.  All of that was topped off with a school sing along and our party. I will try to post pictures of that soon.

Please don't forget to make sure your students have the correct clothing for winter.  I appreciate it!!!!

Homework:

I will be correcting Math tests, final narratives, and Social Studies Quizzes over break, so expect those to come home to be signed the week we come back to school.

Other than that-no homework! Enjoy your break! See you on January 2nd!!!!

I was a bit embarrassed at the behavior of the class for my sister during Junior Achievement today.  I had to deal with a situation in the hallway, and people inside the class were yelling and blurting out answers, and when they got into groups most groups were not on task.  Please discuss this with your children. I appreciate all of the students that were using the Eagle Way for our guest.
