Hi Parents! 

And just like that, it was December! Can you believe it?

Big thanks to the "Shhhh!" volunteers. We are fully stocked for St. Nicholas Day on Monday. We also made stockings for our lockers, decorated the classroom, and added our first "light" to our Advent wreaths.

A few weeks ago, I told the class about the chance to be a more active participant with the Student Council. I asked interested applicants to submit a short letter explaining their qualifications and why they were interested. While I was only looking for 2 students per remaining trimester, 5 students submitted letters. It was decided the applicants could all be accepted. Our 5th Grade Representatives for Trimester 2 are: Ava, Lia, and Caralyn. For Trimester 3, our 5th Grade Representatives will be Alexa and Sophia. Congratulations! 

Next Week: 
Wednesday - SS CE Due
                      Math 2-digit divisor division Test 
Thursday - Eng Adjectives Test 
                  Religion Ch 7 Test
Friday - Spelling Lesson 10 

* Thursday 12/9 is 5th grade's day to go to the Secret Santa Shop. 
* Friday 12/10 is a free dress down day. It will be the "End of Trimester 1 Celebration/Shambuck Party." It will be in our classroom. 

Have a great weekend! God Bless You!
