The stockings were hung from the white board with care...


Ms. Burns and I are so excited for Christmas! :) Yesterday, during centers, Mrs. Neal and Mrs. Atwell came in and helped the students write their name on their stockings with glitter. The children thought it was so neat to see their name in glitter. (HUGE thank you to Mrs. Neal and Mrs. Atwell for helping!)


This morning while we were waiting for the morning announcements to come, we let each child "hang their stocking" from the white board. Be sure to ask your child about decorating their stocking as well as hanging it. Don't forget to come to "Polar Express Night" tonight to hear us read the story. Free hot chocolate and crafts will be available. Bring a wrapped toy for "Toys For Tots" and receive a free homework pass! We hope to see you there!


*Happy Holidays*

All aboard the Polar Express!

The Polar Express is coming to New Berlin Elementary on December 10th! Please join us for a night of hot chocolate, crafts, and a reading of the Polar Express. This year we are asking that you bring a small toy to help "Toys for Tots". Information will be sent home in your child's agenda letting you know the time, and extra details. If you have any questions, please let us know. Ms. Burns' and I, will be reading the story in our room!

We hope you all had a relaxing and enjoyable Thanksgiving. It's hard to believe it is already December 1st! Progress reports will go home on Friday so please be on the look out.

Did you know you can check your child's grades online? Come to the front office to get your password to our parent portal. Stay up to date with how your child is doing in the classroom. If you have any questions or concerns, let us know.

We will be having a holiday gift exchange with the students in our class. Information was sent home in the agenda. Please return the slip provided so we know if your child is participating or not.

Our Math goals have been a success. Almost every child has met their goal. We are so proud of their hard work!!!! Thank you parents for helping your child at home with writing their numbers 0-20!

Be on the lookout for updated pictures soon! As always, if you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact us.

Thanks for your continued support-Miss Ryan and Ms. Burns
